His outer life is ordinary - an ordinary modern city dweller, but his inner life is fairly populated, bright and eventful. Not just an imaginary friend, like many, but a clan, tribe, cohort. Not sub-personalities, but a real family. One day he discovers that all his inner friends have disappeared, and the resulting emptiness calls him on a search. Meanwhile, in the real world, the hero lies in wait for real, not fictitious battles, meetings, tragic and romantic stories. This is a story about an escapist forced to find his place in reality, a modern urban fantasy with elements of a chivalric romance and a space saga.
