About this audiobook

When Mel is admitted to a hospital ward, she meets Emily — a quiet girl reading a story about a young yeti learning endurance on a mountain of snow. As their days unfold between tests, routines, and unspoken fears, the world of Emily’s Mountain begins to mirror their own. Mel escapes into a game where she seals dangerous rifts leaking corruption into fragile landscapes. Emily escapes to Yeti School, where lessons aren’t about strength, but about balance, thresholds, and knowing when to stop. As the girls grow closer, the boundaries between imagination and reality blur. The mountain listens. The rifts respond. And both girls must learn that endurance is not about pushing through at any cost, but about choosing what to carry — and what to gently let rest. Tender, restrained, and quietly powerful, Emily’s Mountain is a story about friendship, limits, and being held when the world narrows.

About the author

Matthew James Hammett

Matthew James Hammett is a British author drawn to hidden architectures — the quiet systems beneath history, technology, and power that most people never notice. His fiction explores equilibrium, optimisation, moral compromise, and the unseen frameworks that hold civilisation together. Blending speculative science fiction with historical undertones and philosophical tension, his stories ask a simple question: what if the structures shaping our world were older, colder, and more deliberate than we think?
