The territory of Veelox has achieved perfect harmony. Fifteen-year-old Bobby Pendragon has arrived on this territry in pursuit of the evil Saint Dane. But all is peaceful in Veelox. Because it's deserted. The inhabitants have discovered a way to enter their own personal dream worlds, where they can be whoever they want, wherever they want. Their bodies lie in stasis while their minds escape to this dream realm.

Fresh from his "win" in 1937 Earth, Bobby is confident that they can defeat whatever Saint Dane has planned for this world. But once Bobby enters the virtual world -- and sees his long-lost family -- will he be able to resist the lure of the ultimate escape?
