In a city racing toward the digital and disposable, Elias, a master of analog repair, faces the challenge of preserving his lifetime of craft. When a corporate giant offers to buy his workshop, he must decide between retirement and resisting the erasure of history. Surrounded by ticking clocks, vintage cameras, and the hum of machines that speak without words, Elias discovers that every gear, spring, and shutter carries a story and that true mastery is measured in patience, precision, and quiet defiance.

About the author
Kyle Hambster
Kyle Hambster is a storyteller and craftsman of atmosphere, drawn to the quiet tension between technology and memory. With a background in film restoration and an obsession with mechanical design, Rickel writes about the places where progress and nostalgia collide where gears, circuits, and human hearts still turn in sync. The Geometry of Gears is his debut work, a meditation on time, purpose, and the enduring beauty of things made by hand. He lives surrounded by vintage machines and unfinished manuscripts, always chasing the sound of a perfect click.View all audiobooks by Kyle Hambster
