The acting and sound effects truly elevated the story. I was listening while reading the physical book, and it was an amazing experience.

For the story

4 ⭐️ That was so good! I really enjoyed this book. The world and the magic systems were beautifully crafted. I really enjoyed the characters. 

However, the pacing was a bit off. The story took a while to pick up certain characters (not the main character, though). I liked the ending but not the way it was written. The POVs were changing very rapidly and it was not enjoyable to read. I also had a few issues with the prose.

The audio production of Elantris is amazing. This version has a full cast, sound effects and soundtrack. The story itself was a bit long-winded in places, especially in parts 1 and 2. Part 3, however, was well-paced and by far the best of the 3 parts. Sanderson has produced an interesting world and magic-system here, though the magic is far less a part of the story than in his Mistborn series. The magic in Elantris is more background and intrigue for much of the book.

Fans of Sanderson will enjoy this and I highly recommend listening to the Graphic Audio as it adds so much more to the book.
