The Devil in America

Narrator Janina Edwards's compelling tone draws listeners into Wilson's searing narrative as a family reckons with a supernatural legacy. Chilling events and mythology are interspersed with descriptions of historical events and the editorial commentary of a father reading from his work in progress. As Easter and her family wield old magic against sinister forces, these elements illustrate how the evils of this story persevere into today's world. Immersive world-building heightens skilled characterizations of Easter's loving, courageous family and friends, the fervently whispering Angels, and the slippery, unyielding Devil. Edwards's pacing and precision with Wilson's imagery drive the narrative forward; captivating dialogue urges listeners through the mounting danger. A stark and enduring listen, well told and unforgettable. K.S.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award � AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine
