    About this audiobook

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

    In the quiet humdrum of his pawnbroker shop, Jurgen yearned for escape. One fateful night, a chance encounter ignites a fantastical quest. Through swirling mists, he finds himself amidst Arthurian legend, hobnobs with a mischievous Devil, and even visits the pearly gates of Heaven. All the while, a singular desire burns bright: the elusive Helen, a vision of beauty and longing. Yet, as Jurgen chases extraordinary dreams, he grapples with the bittersweet truth - the greatest treasures might reside not in distant lands, but within the ordinary life he so readily dismissed. Will Jurgen return from his whirlwind adventure a changed man, or will he find solace in the familiar, even if ordinary, embrace of his everyday life?
