Hushfall: A Systematic Silence (Graphic Novel)

In Orison Prime, speaking is a crime. Singing is treason. A six-year-old girl was executed for crying.

Rell is a Shroud: eight years of enforcing the silence, filing the paperwork, never asking why. Then a forgotten memory core plays him a woman's voice from the old world, and a spiral scratched into a wall leads him underground, to the Resonants, who still remember how to speak.

Their plan is called Hushfall: bring down the crystal tower that silences a whole city. It needs a councillor's mind, a fleet of hacked drones, and someone willing to hold a console in a field of lethal radiation until the song gets out.

A full-colour graphic novel of a clean, quiet dystopia and the beautiful noise that ends it.
