Y los hechos pueden cambiarse.En el país de Ossaniul existe una fortaleza tan desproporcionada como inaccesible: la Casa Culminante. Sus amos, la noble familia de Aldercrest, reinan sobre un verdadero ejercito de esclavos. En lo mas bajo del escalafon, el joven Moth realiza las tareas mas ingratas y tiene pocas esperanzas de vivir mas alla de la infancia. Hasta el dia en que conoce a Obsidian, un misterioso prisionero de la Casa que le susurra en sueños. Si Moth hace lo que pide, Obsidian le concedera fortuna y gloria. Y todo indica que Obsidian puede cumplir sus promesas. ¿Aceptara Moth la oferta?A traves de una sutil historia alternativa, The Highest House lleva a los lectores a un pais ficticio que recuerda a los reinos balcanicos del siglo XVI.
