Book description
Dr. Walden's voice, crisp and cool as polished stone, opens The Incandescent and doesn't let go. This isn't just a book you read-it's a spell you hear, the kind that settles in your bones. Emily Tesh, Hugo-winning architect of the extraordinary, has woven a contemporary fantasy where magic hums beneath the surface of a very real school: Chetwood Academy. Think A Deadly Education's sharp tension, Rivers of London's urban pulse, but distilled into something utterly, beautifully new.
The narrator, with a voice like worn velvet over steel, carries you straight into Walden's world. Her days aren't filled with grand duels, but with the quiet, relentless work of power: teaching A-Level Invocation to four brilliantly messy sixth formers, navigating endless meetings, and the constant, low thrum of securing Chetwood's ancient boundaries against demonic whispers. You hear the clink of teacups in tense staff rooms, the nervous rustle of parchment as students attempt complex incantations, the sharp click of wards holding against unseen pressure. Walden is brilliant, utterly in command-until you realize the true danger isn't the demons clawing at the walls, but the shadow of her own past, the weight of her own choices pressing in. The demons are masters of manipulation, yes, but the most dangerous incursion? It's the one happening inside her own mind, a slow, insidious seep that makes you lean closer to the speaker.
What makes this audiobook sing is how Tesh's lyrical prose translates into sound. Sentences aren't just heard-they resonate. "Her days consist of meetings, teaching... more meetings." The rhythm here is the rhythm of her life: measured, controlled, yet edged with exhaustion. The demonic incursions aren't just described; you feel the air thicken, the silence deepen, as the narrator's voice drops a fraction, becomes more urgent. You hear the centuries-old legacy not as a phrase, but as the creak of old stones, the murmur of forgotten spells in the walls. Walden's brilliance isn't just stated; it's felt in the precise cadence of her dialogue, the way she cuts through chaos with a single, perfect phrase.
This is magic as a daily, demanding practice, not a spectacle. The tension isn't in the grand battle, but in the quiet moment Walden hesitates before speaking, the unspoken fear that the school's safety might depend on her not being who she's become. The narrator captures that internal shift perfectly-subtle, devastating, utterly compelling. You don't just follow Walden's journey; you listen to the careful, necessary, terrifying work of holding a world together, one whispered ward, one focused breath, one hard-won moment of self-doubt at a time. The Incandescent doesn't just tell a story; it casts a spell, and you, the listener, are caught in its glow.
