Spoiler-free Summary

The author creates a skillful blend of reality and fantasy to deliver a soul-capturing version of this tale. Human emotions and the world of the imagination are very seldom shown to the reader in such a delightful and attractive way.

From the mind of Zylo, you will meet the most interesting creatures and experience amazing natural sights you didn’t think existed, even in stories and dreams.

The story leads us to ask so many questions as we read through the pages.

Did all those strange things really happen to him as a child, or was it part of his imagination? Are all those things described in the book part of the reason he turned out the way he did, or was it always there? Did the sadness of the separation in his family have an impact on what happens to him later in life?

All those things he experiences will manifest in the behavior of the young man Zylo will become and prevent him from reaching his full potential. The reader will have to find out for themselves what becomes of the small boy who found solace in the house of his grandmother.
