When a sickly young girl suddenly becomes obsessed with inventing new things, her family and friends are all puzzled.

And since Myne's world is still in a medieval stage, where books can only be owned by the elite, the new Myne intends to do everything she can to bring her beloved books to the masses in the time she has left.
