Book Description
A mythopoeic foray into an alternate world that holds a spiritual message for ours. Somewhere between New York State and Connecticut lies a crack between our world and a parallel human reality known as Hortishland. This charming mystical adventure tale begins when the narrator meets Larso, an emissary from Hortishland. Larso reveals that the Hortish people call her Phtef, which means "One Who Cares," and have selected her to write their story. The result is Hortishland, a chronicle of how the Hortish people have been struggling to fulfill their urgent mission: to save the Earth from destruction. The story describes the travails and triumphs of Darsa and Gerran and their family. Under the tutelage of celestial beings, magical beasts, and a mythic burden from their own deep past, the family must fulfill a difficult task and undergo the transformative inner experience that will enable all of Hortishland to reclaim its heritage and fulfill its purpose of saving Earth. If they fail, the future of our world will remain in jeopardy.
