The Silence

By: Tim Lebbon

Narrated by: Marisa Calin, Ralph Lister

In the darkness of a vast cave system, cut off from the world for millennia, blind creatures hunt by sound. Then there is light, there are voices, and they feed. Swarming from their prison, they multiply and thrive. To scream, even to whisper, is to summon death.

Deaf for many years, Ally knows how to live in silence. Now, it is her family's only chance of survival. They must leave their home, shun others, and find a remote haven where they can sit out the plague. But will it ever end? And what kind of world will be left?

Riveting

Good read, good pace but I dislike the ending and wish there was more to it.

Good but difficult

It's a very good story but as an animal lover there are some parts of the story that are so very difficult to listen to. Those sections still haunt me and are very unsettling. Over all it is a good story and I did enjoy it despite the bad parts.

Great, unsatisfying ending though

I loved the premise of it, loved the unique spin on this kind of scenario. just wasn't crazy about the ending.

Very good

Got it because of the movie on Netflix and was not disappointed. So good, I've already recommended it to a hand full of friends.

Great book, terrible ending

I really enjoyed this book but it’s like the author just wanted to stop writing
