SPIRIT WALKER by Michelle Paver, read by Ian McKellen
The second Chronicle of Ancient Darkness follows 12-year-old Torak through a world of Stone Age spirits and mysticism. Guided by master storyteller, Ian McKellen, listeners easily follow ancient rituals and meet a cast of exotic characters. The fast-paced action follows Torak's quest, surrounded by magic and danger--all beautifully crafted by McKellen's vocal skills.
