The Beast Awakens

In Joseph Delaney's audiobook, Crafty lives in a Britain engulfed by the terrifying mist known as the Shole, which has transformed much of the land and its inhabitants. After spending nearly a year in his family's cellar, he is called to train as a gate grub, operating magical portals for the mysterious Gatemancers. Facing a perilous role with a short life expectancy, Crafty must rely on his wit and resourcefulness to survive in this dangerous world.
