Summary
A 2023 Audie Award winner!
A 2023 Odyssey Honors title!
“This is no ordinary audiobook, but rather a graphic novel for the ears. Readers will be delighted by the auditory magic of this book.”—Booklist
"A full cast of talented narrators taps into the darkly magical atmosphere of Bardugo's graphic novel prequel to the Shadow and Bone trilogy. Primary narrator Ben Barnes depicts the villainous Darkling when he was known as Eryk, a young teen who hungered for companionship and stability. An evocative soundscape, incorporating everything from the clip-clopping of horses' hooves to the sounds of the night, further enhances this spellbinding audio."—AudioFile Magazine (Earphones Award Winner)
See the Grishaverse come to life on screen with the Netflix series, Shadow and Bone—Season 2 premiering March 16, 2023! Discover the origin story of the Darkling in this first-ever Grishaverse graphic novel.
Discover the origin story of the Darkling in this full-cast, first-ever Grishaverse graphic audiobook.
Before he led Ravka’s Second Army, before he created the Fold, and long before he became the Darkling, he was just a lonely boy burdened by an extraordinary power.
Eryk and his mother, Lena, have spent their lives on the run. But they will never find a safe haven. They are not only Grisha—they are the deadliest and rarest of their kind. Feared by those who wish to destroy them and hunted by those who would exploit their gifts, they must hide their true abilities wherever they go. But sometimes deadly secrets have a way of revealing themselves.

Amazing !! Best audio book this year.
I loved the narration and the music and sound effects really made it unimaginable to put down.
I've read the graphic novel, however it's good to listen to even if you haven't read it.
Each character is easy to understand and identify due to the voices.
Best audio book this year! I can't wait for the next one.

Surprising, but still the darkling is morally grey
the best way to sum it up is short and sweet. I have only read shadow and bone and do plan to finish the series as the tv show releases.
the voice acting was perfect, very similar to the sandman audiobook in regards to its quality. Ben Barnes was a nice touch as a sort of narrator in a sense, if I got the voices right. I love the voice actor who played baghra, it was very distinctive and very much in her character.
the story itself was great, with a surprising ending that is both bitter sweet, but still definitely unexpected. very good quick listening experience.
I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of the darkling, Ben Barnes and grishaverse as a whole.

Great voice acting
I only came for Ben Barnes and was not disappointed. 10/10 would recommend. The narration is a plus from the graphic novel, which only shows the dialogue bubbles. It's not the narration from the original novel either, though there are a couple of passages taken directly from there. What I'm trying to say is that this audiobook contains bonus stuff from the actual book, narrated by none other than Ben Barnes himself. To quote Leigh Bardugo from the physical graphic novel: "To the cast and crew of Shadow and Bone, especially Ben, who is one of the good guys."

I just wish it was longer
I love a full cast audio! Especially with sound effects. Ben Barnes narrating the back story of his character from the series was the icing on the cake. I wish the others in the series were like this.

Great performance and immersive sound effects
Brilliant performance by all the voice actors! I especially loved that they brought in the darkling himself, Ben Barnes, to do the narration - even just his parts alone make this worth a listen to. Listening to this whilst following along with the graphic novel makes for an immersive experience that I thoroughly enjoyed, and I would definitely recommend this for any fellow fans of both the books and the show.

It’s not worth the credit
The book itself is an hour long and it’s perfectly okay but it doesn’t really give the background or detail I wanted to learn about the darkling I feel like this could of been more detailed and longer but the story itself is okay just don’t think it’s worth a credit when most of this information you can get from the original stories

Far too short for 1 credit... disappointing
Audio is for less than an evening, and to spend 1 credit feels like cheating
