The book embodies the every day circumstances of youth across the time and geography spectrum. The world Gultar lives in is a combination of fantasy and reality. The various creatures he meets represent a wide cross-section of lifestyles and opinions. Each discovery he makes, each decision he makes and each creature he interacts with is essential in his journey to becoming an adult. Gultar makes friends, makes enemies and makes observations about the world as both he and the world around him change.
