Silverlock by John Myers Myers
The book follows the adventures of a cynical protagonist who, after a shipwreck, finds himself in a fantastical realm known as the Commonwealth of Letters. This land is inhabited by characters and places from myth, legend, and literature. As he journeys through this rich tapestry of storytelling, he encounters figures such as Robin Hood, Beowulf, and Circe, among others. The protagonist, initially self-centered and unappreciative of the narratives around him, gradually becomes transformed by his experiences. Through a series of trials, encounters, and friendships, he gains a newfound appreciation for the power of storytelling and the profound impact it has on the human spirit.
