About this listen

When Auraya was chosen to become a priestess, she could never have believed that a mere ten years later she would be one of the White, the gods' most powerful servants.

Sadly, Auraya has little time to adapt to the exceptional powers gifted her by the gods. Mysterious black-clad sorcerers from the south plague the land, and rumours reach the White of an army being raised. Auraya and her new colleagues work tirelessly to seal alliances and unite the northern continent under their banner, but time is running out.

War comes to the lands of the White, and unless Auraya can master her new abilities, even the favour of the gods may not be enough to save them ...

​I was hesitant to purchase Priestess of the White after being disappointed by the poor narrations of some of Trudi Canavan's other works. This title only had a few reviews since its January 2025 release, which made me even more cautious.
​I am so glad I took the chance! Sarah Douglas narrates this book beautifully and perfectly captures the tone. I am also thrilled this is an unabridged version. Having loved reading this book previously, it was a pleasure to experience it in audio.
​If you're on the fence because of the lack of written reviews, take this as confirmation: It is excellent. I've already noticed the second book in the series was released this month, also narrated by Sarah Douglas, and I will be listening to it immediately.

​A Triumphant Narration! Highly Recommended
