Description:

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. In the year 2050, Crownport gleams like a jewel—but beneath its polished glass and coded etiquette lies a city that starves its own. The Centrals labor under surveillance, their families scattered by the Lottery, their words clipped by the Manner Code. The Stewards, raised in the Outlands, govern with courtesy that cuts deeper than steel. Keo Laren has survived by staying quiet, watching the world through lowered shoulders and bitten tongue. Yet the salt wind stings him awake: in the sky he sees threads of memory and possibility, a vision his sister calls a gift—and his mother calls a danger. Mara Vale, a Steward born into privilege and shadows, hides behind flawless diction and the optics her family demands. From the gallery above, she sees Keo falter in lessons he was never meant to master—and feels a thread binding them neither should acknowledge. When a storm breaks and the city is drenched in visions, Keo and Mara glimpse each other through the rain. What follows is a Lottery that tears families apart, a protest that becomes a massacre, and a vow whispered under a sky that refuses to lie flat. Salt and Silence is the haunting first novel in Under a Comfortless Sky, a dystopian saga of memory, love, and rebellion—where even the smallest intimacy can spark resistance. Duration - 6h 43m.
