A dragon has an urgent question but scant hope of an answer. A chance meeting with a cat, called Luther, who just happens to be one of the world's greatest philosophers, leads to a journey in search of an answer. But Luther's journey soon turns in a radically different direction and he ends up travelling through heaven and hell, where he gains an understanding of how things really work, and what his task actually is. This is a book unlike any other, in an allegory of the human soul, abuse, sin, madness, hope and redemption.
