Summary
The city of the gods. Elantris once stood as the symbol of all that is beautiful. A sprawling metropolis of unrivaled grandeur, it was a symbol of power and strength, built to be as imposing as it was magnificent.
The only thing more glorious than the city itself was its inhabitants, godlike beings, with silvery skin and hair of the purest, flowing white. Able to create powerful magics with a mere wave of their hands, the Elantrians were able to heal mortal wounds and create any object they desired. To be an Elantrian was to be without sickness, without pain, and without want.
And anyone could become a god. Through a process known as the "Shaod", a normal person could go to bed one night and awake the next morning to throw away the shackles of mortality and become a being of incomparable power and grace. With Elantris as their beacon, the light inside all humanity was allowed to shine, elevating it to new heights.
But Elantris fell...10 years ago.

Excellent story, but too noisy
I've read the book several times, and have listened to the regular audio twice, and the story is great. But this adaptation has far too much noise going on, the music and other noise ids too loud, which makes it hard to follow.
I strongly recommend the regular audio instead!

An epic fantasy romp!
My first Sanderson novel. Fun high fantasy epic. Great world building. Enjoyable narrative, more twists than I imagined, but some elements of the ending were telegraphed. Superb performances, music & sfx made for a great recording!

Decent adaptation let down a bit
I really enjoy the Graphic Audio library of stories and am honestly surprised at how well this was done, it's the first of the Cosmere stories done by GA and they did a decent job in doing the story, the people are believable, the music and effects well done and the final putting together nearly all perfect.
There's just 2 things that I have a small issue with.
1. is the pronunciations in the story, we had several instances where the narrator would say a word while narrating, have a character say the same word and then immediately after have the narrator back with the same pronunciation. Clearly someone on-staff corrected him and they didn't rerecord that earlier scene for the sake of speed.
2. In a few sections there's parts that aren't given much detail or shown, for instance the iconic "I failed, I failed my love." words are there - barely heard over narration and character dialogue that should have been equalised a little better, to give that scene more gravitas compared to what we had.
Oh and it doesn't have the Ars Arcanum or the coda with Hoid (said wrong and annoyed me immensely) and those are let downs for me.
Aside from those small gripes, it's a decent book and a decent rendition, all round good in my view if you can take the small problems.

Great story, wonderfully presented
I’ve listened to the standard audiobook before and it was one of my favourite stories. So when I saw there was a Graphic Audio version, I figured it was worth a go.
I absolutely loved it. It added a whole new level to the book and was incredibly immersive.
I already knew the story was great, but listening to the dramatised version just made it so much more exciting.
I look forward to finding other stories in this format in future.

Good read!
Loved it! I've read almost all of his older work, but I found this one just as good. Im hoping for more books about the world and the magic of Elantrians!

Brilliant performance from the cast
I’ve always liked graphic audio as their productions are outstanding. This did not disappoint. Brilliant story from Brandon Sanderson and I enjoyed thoroughly. It’s a great introduction to the Cosmere and it only gets better from here.

Brandon Samderson is a master of endings
The concept of this is really good and it gets way better later on as things start clicking in place. Same level as Mistborn.

Brilliant performance and story
The story needs no review, it's Brandon's debut work so he hasn't quite mastered his craft yet.
The recording is exceptional and everyone involved should be proud. The audio design is clearly over-compressed like many modern designs, which is what people are complaining about when they say they "can't hear the words" but as long as you listen with headphones it's fine.
