Wellside

Ben is
stuck. His parents' divorce left him trapped in a backwater town, and he's just
been caught breaking into a fairly big corporation's servers and they're going
to try him as an adult.

Essa is
also stuck. A vengeful ex-lover left her trapped in a backwater world, and she
has no way back home to the Well, the vast bottomless pit lined with doors to
countless realities.

A lucky
accident (not so lucky for Ben) frees Essa and now they're both in the Well,
with its invisible lizards, cities hung from cats'-cradles and Library made of
sand.

Essa
wants revenge. Ben wants a way home. The awakening of an ancient threat to the
Well puts both their plans on hold. On the run, their only allies a
clockwork spider and a girl made of iron, they'll have to work together to save
all the worlds.
