Unicorns, dragons, sprites, will-o’-the-wisps: the inhabitants of an enchanted world. And into this world – through the pages of an old book – ventures Bastian, a lonely boy of ten or twelve.

But Fantastica is slowly decaying, its Childlike Empress dying.

Only a real human being can set things right by giving the Empress a new name.

Bastian takes up the challenge, and finds himself crossing the Swamps of Sadness and the Silver Mountains, meeting sorcerers and giants, bats and night-hobs, gnomes and racing snails, as he journeys bravely toward the Ivory Tower, Bastian’s quest is filled with all the wonders of myth and fairy tale.

It is a fantasy adventure that will capture your heart – and recapture the magical dreams of childhood.
