When Professor John Robis becomes a subject in a secretive sensory-input experiment, he doesn't anticipate that he will enter a portal more mysterious than a black hole. Crossing a chasm between matter and spirit, he discovers a world inhabited by mindlings, beings much like ourselves who live within us. His odyssey propels him into a strange medieval world, where the mindlings who comprise his identity struggle among themselves.
In a riveting struggle between love and power, John and his inner allies confront a fate that neither he nor they could have imagined. His final discovery, which brings him face to face with death itself, has the power to transform those who dare to journey with him.
