What would happen, if one day you are given a sword, a ring and a few kind words – your mission, save the world. What makes a hero tick? This is the kind of adventure Mark Sternberg stumbles upon.

Shortly after getting hit by a car, the life of a New York college student is turned upside down. Supposedly, his life is in danger, supposedly, the whole world is in danger. The only thing certain, is that when the wizard Zaurin enters his life, nothing remains the same.

Our universe is only one half of a whole. Hidden between the cracks and crannies of spacetime, on the borderlands of fantasy and reality, is Alterra, the realm of our minds. It appears that the link between our “fantasy” and reality is not as hazy as we might have thought. All our mythology exists, in Alterra, the land between dreams.

It turns out that dark forces from there have already gathered here on Earth. And so, Mark must quickly understand the world around him, if he is to find out what happened to his family and beloved friend Cathy. At the same time, he must also figure out how to complete his mighty task. In his way stand lethal politics, a stange world, intriguing relations and dubious allies. In midst all of this, it remains unclear, whether he is really a hero or someone’s pawn.
