A young boy named Boldon, a mysterious girl named Matilde, and the warrior Spike-survivors of a phenomena that took over Earth years ago. Not an apocalypse. Something... far more interesting! Matilde's Quest brings our trio to Valentia Verona (formerly London, England)-one of the most fantastical places on the planet. There, with the help of Boldon and Spike, her newfound friends, Matilde is determined to confront the reason she was cast from her home to wander the land in the first place. But as they stop at each village Matilde has been protecting along the way, they begin to realize that rumors of their exploits are more widespread than they imagined. They are becoming legend and folklore. And with their mythology comes new threats. In a world where story is currency, they are becoming a powerful force to be reckoned with... and, at the same time, attracting attention from both bounty hunters and forces of darkness beyond their understanding.
