Student Vera finds herself involved in an old magician's plan to destroy all books on Earth. While working in the library in the evenings, she has no idea that one day she herself will end up in one of the books and meet the proud prince of the Eastern Kingdom and the mysterious soothsayer. So much falls on a girl’s head at once that it’s no wonder to doubt: who is a friend and who is an enemy. Why is the magician pursuing her? How to deal with the prince's arrogant character? What do the characters in the books expect from her? And how to survive in the real world, having once been in a fairy tale? Vera has to find out all this.
