A Tower in the Well

His life hasn't been a fairy tale... but after getting chased through the woods of Beacon Island by his new classmates, Eddie discovers a mysterious pen pal at the bottom of a well. Her note says her name is Ember and needs his help. Despite fearing that it all could be an elaborate prank, Eddie takes a chance and believes her. But Ember does not live at the bottom of a well. Far away, in a world of darkness, Ember is trapped in a tower. She is a Fen ? a luminous being whose skin glows and whose breath brings objects to life. However, few Fen are left. Most of them were murdered or enslaved by their greatest creations, the Perfect ? living statues that shape reality as they dance. Eddie will have to unravel the mysteries of Beacon Island if he has any hope of helping his new friend. Meanwhile, Ember's life balances on the edge of a Perfect's unstable temper. One misstep, one wrong word and she will suffer worse than death. Two worlds, kept divided for thousands of years, are about to intertwine.
