Im fünfundzwanzigsten Jahrhundert ist Tober Cove ein wunderbarer Ort. Da der Großteil der Erdbevölkerung längst auf andere Planeten gegangen ist und mit ihnen die Technologie, die eine solche Reise möglich macht, ist das Leben hier einfach und ruhig – vor allem für Fullin, einen begabten Musiker, dessen Talent ein Vielfaches der Löhne eines Bauern oder Fischers beherrscht. Aber Fullin ist zwanzig Jahre alt. Und in diesem Alter muss jeder Mensch in Tober Cove die wichtigste Entscheidung im Leben treffen.
Unheilvolle Winde der Veränderung wirbeln in Richtung Fullins idyllischer Existenz und tragen dunkle Geheimnisse, die seinen Glauben auf den Kopf stellen, seine Sicht auf die Realität verändern und sein Leben bedrohen. Doch für den Jungen selbst gibt es keinen Raum mehr für Unentschlossenheit. Es ist an der Zeit, einen unwiderruflichen Stand zu beziehen und sein Schicksal für immer zu besiegeln. Die Stunde des Engagements ist da.
Vom Autor von "Expendable", einer wichtigen neuen Stimme in fantasievoller Fiktion, ist hier ein zauberhaftes Abenteuer, das es wagt, kritische Fragen über den menschlichen Zustand zu stellen und sie zu beantworten.
