Description

Joshua and his three-legged dog, Trinity, take a twilight walk in the woods. When Trinity chases a deer they are taken into an eerie twilight world, a world of strange creatures and weird landscapes.

Joshua battles with his own bipolar mental health condition, never sure that what he is experiencing is real, or the psychotic symptoms of his condition.

Joshuas journey reflects the authors own experiences with psychosis and whilst the story is a fantasy, the issues tackled are very real.

In order to return home Joshua must complete a quest to restore harmony to the twilight world into which he has stepped. He meets many friends along the way, battling with dangerous demons in a journey of a lifetime through the magical twilight world.
