BLACK WATER SISTER

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Catherine Ho

Fantasy • 11.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2021

Narrator Catherine Ho delivers a stellar performance of this layered urban fantasy set in contemporary Malaysia. Jess’s college degree and secret girlfriend are not enough to keep her in the U.S. when her parents return to their homeland. She soon discovers that the gods and spirits are very real there: Her grandmother’s ghost and the god Black Water Sister try to inhabit her body, each seeking revenge, no matter the cost to Jess. Ho’s seamless transitions between characters and accents keep listeners rooted in the story’s Southeast Asian setting. Her tempo and tone add excitement to the action and underscore the humor. The audiobook addresses a number of sociocultural topics, including sexual identity, religion, and family obligations. C.B.L.
