In the shadowy halls of his ancestral library, Mr. Vane encounters a mysterious raven-like librarian who guides him through an ancient mirror into a strange and wondrous realm-the region of the seven dimensions. There, he discovers innocent "Little Ones" threatened by the tyrannical Princess of Bulika: the enigmatic and seductive Lilith, Adam's legendary first wife, whose rebellion has cast her into eternal defiance.

Drawn into a profound struggle between good and evil, Vane confronts the depths of his own soul, the mysteries of life and death, and the arduous path to redemption. Amidst dreamlike landscapes of beauty and terror, he witnesses the possibility of universal salvation-even for the most unrepentant.

George MacDonald's haunting masterpiece, a dark visionary fantasy that profoundly influenced C.S. Lewis, explores the transformative power of surrender, repentance, and divine love in a tale as timeless as myth itself.
