The Beast
listening to what we forgotBy Aliyu Salahudeen
Length53m
About this audiobook
In the quiet village of Koro Ridge, the forest has always been old, patient, and unnamed. Then it begins to respond. The ground trembles, animals disappear, and fear spreads as villagers whisper about a beast they cannot see.
Seventeen year old Ayo senses the truth others ignore. The danger is not a monster that hunts, but a presence shaped by neglect and forgotten attention. Guided by memory and silence, he steps toward the forest to listen rather than fight.
The Beast is a haunting, atmospheric novel about fear, responsibility, and the fragile bond between people and the world around them. Quiet and unsettling, it asks what happens when listening stops, and what it takes to begin again.
