The CARAVAL audiobook is just as magical, romantic, and adventurous as the written version, maybe even more exciting!
Caraval by Stephanie Garber was released early last year and has been one of the best reads of 2016. But if you’re more of a listener or audiobook fan, you can now get the audiobook version of the story.
The story is narrated by voice actor Rebecca Soler, who also narrated The Lunar Chronicles books by Marissa Meyer as well as Atlantia by Ally Condie. Listen to the excerpt below:
Welcome, welcome to Caraval — Stephanie Garber’s sweeping tale of two sisters who escape their ruthless father when they enter the dangerous intrigue of a legendary game.
Scarlett has never left the tiny island where she and her beloved sister, Tella, live with their powerful — and cruel — father. Now Scarlett’s father has arranged a marriage for her, and Scarlett thinks her dreams of seeing Caraval, the faraway once-a-year performance where the audience participates in the show, are over.
But this year Scarlett’s long dreamt of invitation finally arrives. With the help of a mysterious sailor, Tella whisks Scarlett away to the show. Only as soon as they arrive, Tella is kidnapped by Caraval’s mastermind organizer, Legend. It turns out that this season’s Caraval revolves around Tella, and whoever finds her first is the winner.
Scarlett has been told that everything that happens during Caraval is only an elaborate performance. But she nevertheless becomes enmeshed in a game of love, heartbreak, and magic with the other players in the game. And whether Caraval is real or not, she must find Tella before the five nights of the game are over, a dangerous domino effect of consequences is set off, and her sister disappears forever.
