"Every year, townspeople drop paper lanterns into the river for the Autumn Equinox Festival, and every year, Ben wonders where they go. Determined to find the answer, he and an unpopular classmate ride their bikes through numerous adventures. A rare stand-alone epic quest comic, Ryan Andrews maintains a gentle but urgent narrative pull through magical and madcap scenarios. No one comes out the same as they went in. (For ages 10 to 14)"
