Andy Argyrakis, awarding the album four and a half stars at CCM Magazine , writes, "The Gray Havens continue crafting engaging folk/pop compositions with contemplative lyrics, while making noticeable strides creatively and personally." [1] Giving the album four stars from New Release Today, Mary Nikkel states, "Ghost of a King is folk pop at its best, providing just enough musical accessibility to draw in a broad spectrum of listeners and lyrical depth that keeps us digging. This album cements The Gray Havens' status as one of the most promising indie darling acts of 2016." [3] Christopher Smith, reviewing the album at Jesus Freak Hideout, describes, "Where Fire & Stone was only more rewarding with more listens, Ghost of a King leaves a stronger initial impression but doesn't quite have the 'masterpiece' quality of Fire & Stone. But even landing just shy of that album is a tremendous accomplishment." [4] Rating the album five stars for The Christian Manifesto, writes, "This is just a perfect album." [2] Michael Weaver, indicating in a review by Jesus Freak Hideout, says, "The Radfords have certainly proven that they know what they are doing and always leave you wanting just a little more." [5]
