SOUNDLESS was a really interesting novel, because it remarks
on the idea of sound in conjunction with ones’ own fears. The society that Fei
lives in is soundless, and this is a concept which scares me. Having this be
the basis of the world in which she lives, however, is unimaginable. Mead
somehow paints a picture of this in a richly imaginative way. Fei’s home in
this mythological Chinese Mountain village is thrust into crisis and darkness
and starvation. It is up to her to fight against the elements. This beautiful new
book pictures an incredible reality with romance, and strength as Fei stands up
for what she loves and discovers more about herself in the process.
