If I said that someone very dangerous wants to destroy me, would you try to stop them? How about if I asked you to risk your own skin to find some missing kids, would you do that for me.... well would you? When Fraser Bloom woke up one morning, I asked him to do all of those things and then some, and boy did he get more than he bargained for. Let me tell you a story about a kid, a city, and then a hidden magical world of buildings that exists beyond the reach of you humans that use them. Of course Bloom was not exactly chosen for his good looks, or indeed his fascination of the concrete giants that surround him, no, Fraser Bloom has a shocking connection to my world that no kid would ever choose, a frightening past that would eventually haunt his world, not to mention mine. So why don't you sit down and enjoy the ride as Fraser explores my incredible city, the ghostly trains of Grand Centrals forgotten platforms, the secret plans in the highest floors of Queen Emp, the endless knowledge of Madam Bibliotheque and then the many other mind-blowing powers revealed only to Bloom by my pals that make up this remarkable city. With a little help from his best friend Rich and sister Eden, join Fraser as he struggles to solve the mystery of his missing friends whilst doing battle with a powerful enemy that's trying to destroy us all... oh yeah and just in case you are wondering who I am, well I'm Fraser's newest pal, my name is Walter, although you probably know me better as The Chrysler Building of Manhattan, New York, a city of the tallest dreams and a place where just about anything is possible!
