  Ever since she was ten years old Dakin has dreamed of reaching the beautiful farthest-away mountain and discovering its secrets.

  Then one day, when she is almost fifteen, the mountain calls to her, and Dakin sets out on a terrifying journey through the wicked wood and treacherous mountain paths. Along the way she must escape from the clutches of a great black flying monster, outwit the giant ogre, and confront the evil Colored Snow Witch who gnashes her teeth and howls with fury. With help from some enchanted friends—Old Croak the frog, a little troll, and Og, Vog, and Zog—Dakin bravely continues her journey, to discover the terrible secret that has controlled the mountain for 200 years and now threatens to destroy the world.
