Shortlisted for the Locus Award for Best Fantasy Novel (2004).

Theo Vilmos is a 30-year-old lead singer in a not terribly successful rock band. Once, he had enormous, almost magical charisma, both onstage and off—but now, life has taken its toll on Theo. Hitting an all-time low, he seeks refuge in a isolated cabin in the woods. While there, he reads an odd memoir written by a dead relative who believed he had visited the magical world of Faerie. And before Theo can disregard the account as the writings of a madman, he, too, is drawn to a place beyond his wildest dreams . . . a place that will be, and has always been, his destiny. This stand-alone contemporary fantasy novel is set in Northern California—and also in the strange parallel world that coexists in the farthest reaches of the imagination.
