Prentisstown is not like any other town. It is a town of men and everyone can hear everyone else’s thoughts. Todd Hewitt is just one month away from the birthday that will make him a man. But his town has been keeping secrets from him. Todd does not fit into their plan. Secrets that are going to force him and his dog to run. Pursued by power-hungry Mayor Prentiss and mad minister Aaron, Todd, his dog and Viola (a girl that they along the way) set out across New World searching for answers about his colony's true past and seeking a way to warn the ship bringing hopeful settlers from Old World.
