An American boy is transported to a world of seven levels, from the realm of gods to the land of the dead, and transformed into an adult knight. As Sir Able of the High Heart, he quests through a mythic landscape populated by giants, elves, dragons, and Arthurian echoes, struggling to live up to an ideal of chivalry.
