He is a boy dressed in silks and white wigs and given the best of classical educations. Raised by a mysterious group of rational philosophers known only by numbers, the boy and his mother�a princess in exile from a faraway land�are the only people in their household assigned names. As the boy�s regal mother, Cassiopeia, entertains the house scholars with her beauty and wit, young Octavian begins to question the purpose behind his guardians� fanatical studies. Only after he dares to open a forbidden door does he learn the hideous nature of their experiments�and his own chilling role in them.
