Who is Taran Matharu?

Fantasy written for younger listeners has to move. A teenager will forgive a great deal but not a slow first hour, and The Inquisition is shaped with that audience in mind. Our catalogue files it for children and families as well as for teens and young adults, which puts it in the comfortable middle ground a whole household can share.

Taran Matharu writes it as part of The Summoner Trilogy, and the sequence title sets its own terms: summoning is the engine of this world. An inquisition, meanwhile, promises judgement, pressure and an establishment that must be answered to, which is generally where a fantasy series starts to get interesting.

Taran Matharu in audiobooks

The Inquisition runs to ten hours and eleven minutes, narrated by Dominic Thorburn. It is a scheduled arrival here rather than a title already on the shelf, and it has drawn only a handful of listener scores so far, too few to read much into.

Anyone new to the trilogy should begin at its opening volume rather than here, since the sequence is written to be followed in order. For families listening together it is a sensible pick, with enough substance for the adults and enough pace for the young. Watch for the audiobook below.
