This âclever opener likely to leave readers breathless both with laughter and anticipationâ (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) is the first in the New York Times bestselling series from the author of the Half Upon a Time trilogy.
Life is boring when you live in the real world, instead of starring in your own book series. Owen knows that better than anyone, what with the real worldâs homework and chores.
But everything changes the day Owen sees the impossible happenâhis classmate Bethany climb out of a book in the library. It turns out Bethanyâs half-fictional and has been searching every book she can find for her missing father, a fictional character.
Bethany canât let anyone else learn her secret, so Owen makes her a deal: All she has to do is take him into a book in Owenâs favorite Kiel Gnomenfoot series, and heâll never say a word. Besides, visiting the book might help Bethany find her fatherâŚ
âŚOr it might just destroy the Kiel Gnomenfoot series, reveal Bethanyâs secret to the entire world, and force Owen to live out Kiel Gnomenfootâs final (very final) adventure.
