| Synopsis
Stone is a wall - a wall the size of a world. Victorian naturalist Jonah Lightfoot, along with his American companion Annie West, is catapulted here following the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883.
In this strange, vertical realm, Jonah faces an immortal dragon who has lain imprisoned for a million years, hatred growing inside her. Her name is Archan, and she is free at last. And she's mad as hell.
But Stone's precipitous landscape holds more than just magic - it holds memory too. As he journeys through human history and ancient myth, Jonah learns that on Stone the future is rarely certain.
More disturbingly, the same applies to the past.
