Golden Voice Adjoa Andoh narrates a complex story about identity and belonging set in Ann Leckie’s Imperial Radch universe. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss this new standalone sci-fi mystery with a memorable cast of characters. Qven should have become a Presger translator, but for a terrible incident that sends them careening towards Enae Athur, Reet Hluid, and the Radch Empire. Adjoa expertly narrates the emotional depths of these three characters, each of whom comes from a background where they were not valued or or didn’t feel part of a community. As all three claim their identities and start to heal, Andoh’s performance will resonate in profound ways.
