Alice has lived in calm, peaceful Wonderland her entire life. She longs for the adventures she finds in books about a noble, exciting world far different from her unchanging land. When a Hatter drives up in his White Rabbit with an offer to visit the place she dreams of, she eagerly accepts. Arriving in our world, however, she finds it to be nothing like she expected. Years after the quests of the great heroes she read about, she is surrounded instead by a modern, desolate city. Terrified and lost, Alice wanders beneath the towering skyscrapers until she meets two siblings from which she learns more about love, loss, and sacrifice than her books had ever shown her.
