It is a wonderful romp you have to read to believe." (Amazon Reviewer)"I went into this book expecting something like Jasper Fforde's books, and while there is some similarity in the premises, this was totally unique in the execution. And even though it seems like an adventure based on following the rules of story structure and using various tropes of fiction would be predictable, I was never able to guess where this one was going next."
