The Language of Magic
Book One of the Unwritten TrilogyBy Aimee Neyra
Length7h 43m
About this audiobook
A linguist watches an ancient manuscript rewrite itself — an entire civilization erased from its own pages while she reads. By morning, her mentor is dead and she is being hunted.
The man who saves her is the last Guardian of the First Language, the tongue reality itself was written in. Every word he speaks costs him years of his life.
Together they follow the trail of vanishing languages across a world that is forgetting itself — deserts where songs reshape the dunes, mountain fortresses of living stone, islands dissolving into the sea because the last speakers of their language are dying faster than the words can be passed on.
At the center of it all is a man whose grief is real, whose vision is coherent, and whose plan for lasting peace requires that every language on earth except one fall permanently silent.
Some knowledge cannot be written down. It can only be carried.
