Nancy Wu steps gracefully into the prestigious role of Avatar Yangchen in this prequel to the beloved series. Yangchen, an air-nomad avatar prior to Aang, is the glue holding four nations together. But a powerful enemy, Chaisee, threatens the balance. In her attempt to restore peace, Yangchen seeks help from Kavik, an old friend turned betrayer. While the story appears to follow the typical Avatar arc, Wu's interpretation of the rich character development makes this a unique listening experience. Her soothing narration embodies Yangchen's pacifism but doesn't detract from the thrilling action sequences. Of course, it isn't an Avatar story without solid relationships between all the characters, and Wu doesn't disappoint. Each line of dialogue is delivered expertly, making this a standout performance.
