description: Wealthy young John Kenton receives a mysterious inscribed block of stone from an archaeological dig in Mesopotamia. It proves to encase the carved image of an ancient ship with some strange features, which proves to the counterpart of a real one in another dimension, to which the earthly counterpart is magically linked --and between the worlds of which the earthly model ship is a conduit.
