Twelve-year-old Jack Sawyer embarks on a desperate quest to save his dying mother. Guided by a mysterious force, he discovers he can "flip" between our world and the Territories—a parallel universe where his mother's twinner, the Queen, also lies dying. Jack must journey across America, facing monsters, treachery, and unspeakable evil, to reach the Talisman, the only power capable of healing both worlds. Along the way, he finds loyal friends and ruthless enemies, including the sinister Sunlight Gardener and the depraved Morgan of Orris. A breathtaking blend of fantasy and horror, The Talisman is an epic tale of courage, love, and destiny.
