Publisher's Synopsis
An incredible Novella set in the Otherland Universe by New York Times bestselling author Tad Williams.
When Orlando Gardiner's physical body died, his mind was lost to the massive simworld known as Otherland. Today he has come to the Great Wall of China in the Ming Dynasty. This part of the sim was closed years before when it was revealed it was attached to the real world. Today, cleared of its past troubles, Orlando opens it again, but the moment he does so he is challenged with a near impossible quest: to rescue a Peach Maiden who has been abducted to the demon-ruled Metal Isle. Orlando cannot refuse, little knowing that the deadly interface between truth and reality remains dangerously open.
