Ludik and the Runaway Mountain

<p><em>&lsquo;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.</em></p>
<p><em>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. </em></p>
<p><em>With the earth-shattering thunder of a runaway mountain.</em></p>
<p><em>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.’</em></p>

<p>&lsquo;A well-written and exciting new take on epic fantasy mixed with alternate realities. Great characterization, plotting, and action mixed with interesting worldbuilding makes this a winner.’ – Bryan Thomas Schmidt, #1 bestselling author of <em>Shortcut </em>and Hugo-nominated editor</p>
