The Dark Attic: A Tai Ji Tale

by Tom Voychehovski, Luke Prater

Overview

A mysterious supercomputer connected to Stephen's wheelchair somehow sends both him and his erstwhile new friend Alex into a virtual reality where fairy tales are made real and their challenges even more so. Can this fantasy world save Stephen's real life or help with the search for Alex's lost mother?

The Dark Attic mixes the magic and philosophy of Tai Ji Quan (also known as Tai Chi) with a healthy dose of sci-fi realism, ultimately revealing the importance of belonging, friendship, and family.
