About this audiobook
Wheels of the Dawn is a moving historical fiction tale about courage, invention, and the birth of a new world. Set in late nineteenth-century Europe, it follows Otto Krauss, a humble blacksmith who dares to imagine a carriage that moves without horses. Through failure, faith, and relentless work, Otto and his companion Marta journey from a small village to the roaring city, where dreams and greed collide. Their invention becomes more than metal and fire, it becomes a symbol of human will, showing that progress begins not with power but with the courage to believe in the impossible.
