Dante has escaped the horrors below, but his journey is far from over. Before him rises a tremendous mountain from a lonely sea, its winding paths leading toward a place he can barely imagine. Guided once more by the poet Virgil, Dante begins to climb, meeting souls who waited too long to change, rulers humbled by their failures, friends from his former life, and travelers struggling to leave their old weaknesses behind. Higher on the mountain, every step brings a new trial. Proud souls bend beneath crushing stones, the envious walk with their eyes closed, angry spirits wander through choking smoke, and others race, hunger, or lie pressed against the earth as they learn to master the desires that once ruled them. Angels guard the path, mysterious visions appear, the mountain itself trembles with joy, and Dante slowly discovers that becoming better requires courage, honesty, and the willingness to keep climbing. At the summit waits a beautiful garden untouched by the troubles of the world, but reaching it will demand Dante's greatest acts of courage yet. A wall of fire blocks the path, an old friend must be left behind, and someone Dante has longed to see is finally drawing near. After everything he has endured, can Dante face the truth about himself and become ready for the journey to Heaven?
