About this listen

A fully illustrated guide to Deborah Harkness's number-one New York Times best-selling All Souls trilogy - "an irresistible...wonderfully imaginative grown-up fantasy" (People)

A Discovery of Witches introduced Diana Bishop, Oxford scholar and reluctant witch, and vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont. Shadow of Night and The Book of Life carried Deborah Harkness's series to its spellbinding conclusion.

In The World of All Souls, Harkness shares the rich sources of inspiration behind her bewitching novels. She draws together synopses, character bios, maps, recipes, and even the science behind creatures, magic, and alchemy - all with her signature historian's touch. Bursting with fascinating facts and dazzling artwork, this essential handbook is a must-have for longtime fans and eager newcomers alike.

Music by Isaias Garcia

Includes a bonus PDF including recipes, images, translations, and more.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Probably better as a book

This is a companion book to the series and it has some interesting background/historical information. However, it's not really the kind of book you listen to...more something you could refer to or read in small doses when you felt curious.

A significant weakness is the abundance of mispronunciations - don't audio books have editors or producers? In addition to being simply wrong in some cases, other pronunciations differ from those of the Jennifer Ikeda narrations. It's annoying.

Finally, I really do love the PDF, but I wonder why the pictures reproduced are in black and white, especially the images of works of art?! That's just unprofessional.

In conclusion, if you are an All Souls fan and want a companion guide, purchase the book. The audio book is not worth your money or a credit.

Also, as a personal opinion only, bring back Jennifer Ikeda for any future audiobooks!
