The audio narration of Black Sun Rising novel is done by R. C. Bray. He is a renowned narrator of audiobooks and his performance was good in this one. The book tells the amazing story of discovery and fights against evil. It took place on a planet where natural force exists and that is also capable of redefining or reshaping the world. This would come in response to the psychic stimulus. The terrifying natural force mentioned here is more like magic. It has got all the power to prey on the mind of human beings and could draw the worst nightmare images or some treasured dreams at times.
