They communicate in his native language, narrating the story of his new existence and his mission that has yet to be fulfilled. Supported by friends from both past and present, Tom reluctantly faces challenges and risks to complete the mission given to him in his vision quest two centuries ago. To undertake his quest, Tom now faces dangers as real as the gun-carrying soldiers from his previous life. Realizing he can’t return to the yearned-for past, Tom grapples with the necessity of forging ahead in his current life. Embarking on a quest transcending time and culture, he adjusts to his newfound fame, wrestles with his identity, and strives to fulfill his destiny.

Howard Barton came to Mendocino in search of a folded scrap of paper. Not just any old scrap of paper, but one bearing what might be a sketch by the legendary Japanese artist, Hoku-sai. But Howard, unfortunately, is not the only one who wants the sketch . . . There’s old Heloise Lamey, whose lush and noxious garden is watered with blood, ink, and stranger substances. And the enigmatic Mr. Jimmers, the owner of a workshop that holds a bizarre invention designed to raise the dead. Even Howard’s Uncle Roy, a builder of haunted houses and founder of the Museum of Modern Mysteries, has an interest in the sketch. In Northern California, nothing is what it appears, but everything is connected— and Howard is led to a mysterious private war between secret, underground societies. Now he just needs to figure out whose side he’s on in the quest for the Paper Grail. “Blaylock redeems the familiarity of his plot with a gift for drawing characters who are eccentric in delightful and original ways, whichever side of the war they are on.” —Publishers Weekly “Blaylock ventures into the realm of magical realism as eccentric matrons and failed entrepreneurs assume mythic proportions in this witty and intelligent metaphysical novel. This crossover novel belongs equally well in literary and fantasy collections.” —Library Journal
