High in his attic bedroom, twelve-year-old David mourns
the death of his mother, with only the books on his shelf for
company. But those books have begun to whisper to him in the
darkness. Angry and alone, he takes refuge in his imagination
and soon finds that reality and fantasy have begun to meld. While
his family falls apart around him, David is violently propelled
into a world that is a strange reflection of his own -- populated
by heroes and monsters and ruled by a faded king who keeps his
secrets in a mysterious book, The Book of Lost Things.
