In a city where the sky was nothing more than a myth, twelve-year-old Niko refuses to forget what no one else remembers. The towers are too tall. The lights are too bright. And somewhere above the smog and static, the stars-if they ever existed-have been erased from memory. In this strange and silent world, curiosity is dangerous, questions are discouraged, and looking up is an act of quiet rebellion. But Niko looks up anyway. When he discovers a strange, glowing spiral hidden in his chest-and a forgotten word whispered on the wind-his life begins to unravel. Alongside Lyra, a girl with a name that doesn't belong to anyone anymore, and a growing group of children who hear the same impossible hum in the air, Niko begins to uncover a secret buried beneath the city's silence. The sky hasn't been lost. It's been waiting. Told in lyrical, dreamlike prose, The City That Forgot the Sky is a deeply emotional, genre-bending children's fantasy that explores memory, wonder, resistance, and the quiet power of remembering what others want you to forget. Because sometimes, the most powerful thing a child can do... is look up.
