Summary
Xhea has no magic. Born without the power that everyone else takes for granted, Xhea is an outcast no way to earn a living, buy food, or change the life that fate has dealt her. Yet she has a unique talent: the ability to see ghosts and the tethers that bind them to the living world, which she uses to scratch out a bare existence in the ruins beneath the City's floating Towers. When a rich City man comes to her with a young woman's ghost tethered to his chest, Xhea has no idea that this ghost will change everything. The ghost, Shai, is a Radiant, a rare person who generates so much power that the Towers use it to fuel their magic, heedless of the pain such use causes. Shai's home Tower is desperate to get the ghost back and force her into a body, any body, so that it can regain its position, while the Tower's rivals seek the ghost to use her magic for their own ends. Caught between a multitude of enemies and desperate to save Shai, Xhea thinks herself powerless until a strange magic wakes within her. Magic dark and slow, like rising smoke, like seeping oil. A magic whose very touch brings death. With two extremely strong female protagonists, Radiant is a story of fighting for what you believe in and finding strength that you never thought you had.

Fascinating, unique and engaging story
This book creates a bleak but believable world where magic is as easy as breathing for most but not all. Really enjoyable with a main character you can’t stop rooting for. A great read!

Enjoyable!
Great dystopian fiction, Fast paced, engaging main character, interesting storyline and a unique tale. Narration is good, although it does seem like audio quality changes in some places, not enough to detract from the tale just notable. All in all a great audiobook I didn’t want to put down. Recommend.

Boring narrator
No life or expression of characters. Soporific. I managed to finish but won't bother with next one. Gave 3 stars as the story is different.

Worst narration I’ve heard
This was the worst performance I’ve ever listened to. Completely disinterested, monotone, devoid of any emotion. It completely took me out of what was otherwise an interesting story.
