The Abandoned Realm
Brittany Hansen, author
Her first mistake was abandoning her story. Her second was assuming her characters would stay on the page.
When a writer abandons a story, the hero is ripped from the existence the author created and sentenced to the Abandoned Realm. With less people believing in the power and magic of fiction, the real world and the Abandoned Realm are slowly poisoned as the boundary between them weakens.
A vengeful hero-turned-villain exploits the boundary’s weakness to make a portal, flooding San Francisco with bloodthirsty monsters and dark magic. Bex, a failed writer, and her resentful unfinished character hold the key to resealing the portal. Their inner demons, as well as those attacking the city, must all be defeated to close the portal before time runs out.
