synopsis
A metafictional adventure through a dystopian world. Every 35 years, residents of this world must move to a new “Land” - each a rigid caste society based on hair colour - and each person bears a Significant Name that foretells the manner of their deaths. New arrivals Gavein Throzz and Ra Mahleiné make sacrifices to stay together, defying authorities who try to separate Gavein, a robust “black,” from Ra Mahleiné, a lowly “white” destined to suffer in Davabel’s harsh climate.
Soon, Gavein finds himself at the center of an epidemic of deaths - though he himself remains suspiciously unharmed - and discovers a book titled Nest of Worlds, populated by characters busy reading their own versions of Nest of Worlds, whose fates may lie in the hands of the reader.
