Biddy and the Silver Man by Harlan Ellison ~ Full Audiobook [scifi]

Biddy and the Silver Man by Harlan Ellison audiobook. Genre: scifi In the sunblasted Arizona desert, twelve-year-old Biddy passes her days making up adventures with her burro, Buck, pushing past the limits of a leg brace and the pain of polio. Sage Bend is small, harsh, and quick to judge, but Biddy has learned to meet the world head-on - especially when the wide, empty country beyond town still feels like it belongs to her. Everything changes when she and Buck discover a hidden cave containing a strange machine and a wounded man named Joe, who insists he is from the 'sky bloc.' Joe is unlike anyone Biddy has ever met: guarded, frightened, and capable of something that looks an awful lot like a miracle. When Joe heals Biddy, wonder spreads through Sage Bend - and so does suspicion. To the townspeople, the unknown is a threat, and their fear curdles into prejudice and violence. As the community closes in, Biddy must decide what she believes, what she is willing to risk, and whether a child with a stubborn heart can stand against a mob.
