Onboard, Floyd befriends a fellow passenger named Jonathan Swift, a young writer suffering from debilitating writer’s block. When the ship wrecks on an uncharted island, Floyd becomes a prisoner of a magical race of people no taller than six inches. Suffice to say, the tiny Lilliputians and their strange customs provide just the inspiration Jonathan Swift needs to write again!
Floyd’s odyssey takes him from the Middle East to China and finally to Xanadu, where he must save a woman imprisoned by a demon. Here, Floyd faces the ultimate decision—one that will determine his true destiny.
