This is the tale of a boy who grows up day dreaming and, in the end, goes on an incredible adventure that you never get to hear about.
I love the way it's written, and I especially adore the boy's mentality. To me, he holds in him the essence of anyone who's ever desired a life off the beaten path. He pursues it in the most real world fashion with all the glitter of a fairy tale.
There's not much of a plot though, and the ending fizzles out in the most unsatisfying way. In a funny sort of way, it's appropriate... but that doesn't make it any less disappointing.
