Antimony is a mediator, and can talk to spirits and the supernatural; her school, Gunnerkrigg Court, is separated from an enchanted and very powerful forest by a mere creak. Throughout the story Antimony faces off with Dragons, ghosts, robots, and a variety of gods - from all different religions.
Antimony's best friend Kat is a mechanic. She is very analytical in nature - not so easy living beside a forest of phenomena that cannot be explained. Kat at one point finds a hidden room of robots with no power switch or circuit board, turns them on, and watches them reenact a play.
Throughout the story of Gunnerkrigg Court, it is obvious that something is different about this industrial-like school. What with the magic, mystery and mayhem going on, it isn't unlikely you might get in reading it and never want to put it down ;)
