Having fallen asleep in a book to awaken within its pages, Finnian Ludwell begins a dreamlike adventure in which he must learn to walk along the precipice between love and hate, passion and sacrifice. In this new frontier he encounters haunting tree spirits, noble knights, beautiful maidens, and much more. Despite his own cowardice, growth is forced and change inevitable as he passes back and forth across the borders of profound sorrow, inspiring hope, and a longing for death.
