A tiny clockwork hero on a quest for a heart for the one he loves, fights for freedom and hope, facing tyrannical forces in a fantastical modern fairytale.
Enslaved for generations, Canto’s people once had hearts. Now they have clocks. They are forbidden to love, yet Canto loves a little tin girl. When slavers damage her clock beyond repair, Canto embarks on an incredible journey through his strange and fantastic world to bring back her heart. As he conquers fearsome creatures and finds unlikely allies, he must confront the mysterious figure who has taken their hearts to save the one he loves.
