The Knife of Never Letting Go (with bonus short story) Chaos Walking: Book One

Todd Hewitt is the only boy in a town of men. Ever since the settlers were infected with the Noise germ, Todd can hear everything the men think, and they hear everything he thinks. Todd is just a month away from becoming a man, but in the midst of the cacophony, he knows that the town is hiding something, something so awful Todd is forced to flee with only his dog, Manchee, whose simple, loyal thoughts are also audible. Soon Todd meets a strange, silent creature: a girl. Who is she? And why wasn't she killed by the germ like all the women on New World? Propelled by Todd's gritty narration, readers are in for a white-knuckle journey in which a boy on the cusp of manhood must unlearn everything he knows in order to figure out who he truly is.
