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 world s homework and chores. But everything changes the day Owen sees the impossible happen his classmate Bethany climb out of a book in the library. It turns out Bethany s half-fictional and has been searching every book she can find for her missing father, a fictional character. Bethany can t let anyone else learn her secret, so Owen makes her a deal: All she has to do is take him into a book in Owen s favorite Kiel Gnomenfoot series, and he'll never say a word. Besides, visiting the book might help Bethany find her father...Or it might just destroy the Kiel Gnomenfoot series, reveal Bethany s secret to the entire world, and force Owen to live out Kiel Gnomenfoot s final (very final) adventure..
