About this audiobook
In a world of rising tides and industrial decay, Arthur is a mechanic who understands that machines aren't just metal—they are temperamental things that hold grudges. Aboard the Marrow’s Path, a rusted freighter held together by spit and spite, he and the weary Captain Silas navigate a treacherous ocean where a single blown gasket means death.
What begins as a mission to deliver seeds to a starving colony turns into a desperate flight for survival. From patching toxic sulfur leaks to scavenging parts from a pressurized ghost ship, Arthur must push his engine, "The Iron Lung," beyond its breaking point. When he discovers the ship is secretly hauling high-grade military fuel cells, he is forced to choose between the safety of his vessel and the survival of a forgotten people.
The Weight of Saltwater is a gritty, nuanced story of grit and grease. It is a journey through a landscape of rust where the ultimate goal isn't just to stay afloat, but to bring light back to the darkness.
