About This Audiobook
Morrigan Crow is back in Nevermoor for her second year as a member of the elite Wundrous Society, but the magical city is under siege. A terrifying illness called the Hollowpox is spreading through the Wunimal population, transforming sentient, speaking creatures into feral, dangerous Unnimals. As fear grips the city and the crisis deepens, Morrigan finds herself at the center of it all, struggling to master her own formidable and unpredictable power while searching for a way to stop the outbreak before Nevermoor falls apart around her.
Gemma Whelan brings remarkable range to this performance, voicing Morrigan's determined vulnerability alongside a sprawling cast of eccentric characters with warmth and precision. Her timing captures both the series' playful humor and its genuine emotional stakes, making the story's darker turns land with real weight. At over fourteen hours, the runtime never drags; Townsend's layered world rewards sustained listening, and Whelan's narration keeps the momentum alive from the opening chapter to the final scene.
