Ludik and the Runaway Mountain by John Ilho
Ludik and the Runaway Mountain by John Ilho
English | 2024 | Sci-Fi & Fantasy
‘Most people call me Ludi or Lud, even though my name is Ludik. Or they do call me Ludik, but I can’t catch the k on their lips. No, it doesn’t bother me—being deaf, that is. Still, if given the choice, I would’ve gone with ugly.
There are many misconceptions about deafness, but the oddest to me is that we are void of sound, which is simply not true. And it’s with a sound that my story begins.
With the earth-shattering thunder of a runaway mountain.
The mountain destroyed everything I’ve ever known. My village, my friends, my family. All gone. I don’t care why it ran. I’ll make sure it never moves again.’
