The Garden of Hollow Trees

De: Paul Kell

Narrado por: Ed Fairbanks

In the land of Tisandre, a country on the brink of transformation, the battle between religious fervor and the thirst for scientific discovery rages beneath the surface. As the authoritarian ruler, Caius Magnus Torvok, tightens his grip on power, the nation plunges into a new age of dogma and control, where truth itself becomes a weapon.

Luke Thorne, a former military officer turned political adviser, is drawn into a web of lies, loyalty, and internal conflict. Once a hero, now a reluctant cog in the machinery of a regime that stifles freedom, Luke must navigate a dangerous world where knowledge is both a weapon and a crime. Haunted by his past and estranged from his daughter, Luke faces the toughest choice of his life: support the system he helped build, or risk everything to stand against it.

In the shadows, Professor Elias Verne, an exiled astrophysicist and philosopher, leads a quiet rebellion. His intellectual defiance against the regime’s oppressive religious ideology sparks a movement that threatens to undo everything Torvok has worked to destroy. As the forces of oppression and rebellion converge, the future of Tisandre hangs in the balance, and the lines between loyalty, betrayal, and truth blur beyond recognition.

The Garden of Hollow Trees is a gripping tale of power, faith, and the pursuit of truth.

A dark allegory for the battle between intellectual freedom and authoritarian rule. In this world of ever-encroaching darkness, who will remain standing when the trees of knowledge are hollowed out?
