Sparta Andrew Bayless by Matt Addis

Sparta 

by author Andrew Bayless 

and narrated by Matt Addis

Rating: 5 star rating

I really enjoyed listening to Sparta by Andrew Bayless, narrated by Matt Addis. The story does a great job mixing action, politics, survival, Spartan culture, history, and archeological information without feeling too complicated or dry.

The characters felt believable, especially the warriors and leaders dealing with loyalty, sacrifice, and the pressure of conflict. The battle scenes were exciting, but I also liked that the story showed the personal side of the characters along with information about their culture and history.

Matt Addis was an excellent narrator. His voice really fit the serious tone of the book, and he kept the story engaging the whole time. He handled both the action scenes and quieter emotional moments very well. His way of narrating the story made it interesting to listen to. He made you stay tuned into the story.

The ending was perfect and fit the story without needing any great displays. If you enjoy historical fiction, ancient Greece, military stories, or strong, interesting audiobook performances, this is definitely worth listening to. I would definitely listen to more stories by this author/narrator combo.

Thank you, NetGalley, RBmedia, Andrew Bayliss author, and Matt Addis narrator for the audiobook review consideration. All opinions are my own.
