Dichronauts Audiobook (Free)

Seth is a surveyor, together with his friend Theo, a leech-like creature running through his skull who tells Seth what lies to his left and right.

In the universe containing Seth’s world, light cannot travel everywhere: there’s a ‘dark cone’ to the north and south. Seth can only face towards the east (or the western, if he tips his head backwards). If he begins to turn towards the north or south, his body exercises out over the landscape, also to rotate as far as north-north-east is difficult.

about Dichronauts

Every living part of Seth’s world is in circumstances of perpetual migration as they follow the sun’s shifting orbit and the narrow habitable zone it creates. Cities are being continuously disassembled at one edge and rebuilt on the various other, with surveyors mapping safe routes ahead.

But when Seth and Theo join an expedition to the edge of the habitable area, they discover a terrifying risk: a fissure in the surface of the world, so deep and large that no one can perceive its limits. As the habitable zone continues to go, the migration will soon be clogged by this unbridgeable void, and the expedition has only one substitute for save its town from annihilation: descend into the unknown.
