I wasn't too impressed with the beginning. I set this down after a few pages to do other things and didn't pick it up again for a few days. What really happened when her fictional father disappeared years ago? Who is Nobody, and why is he writing these Story Thieves books? And what kind of supervillain name is The Rotten Banana? It all comes back to Bethany’s own secret origins. The one hero who might have stopped all of this, Doc Twilight, has been imprisoned by the Dark.īut who is Doc Twilight really? And how can Bethany and Owen defeat the Dark without superpowers of their own? They’ll definitely need the help of some old friends and new allies to bring the light back to Jupiter City, and find out the truth behind the Dark. Even the villains are terrified of the Dark’s shadows, and most of the heroes have either disappeared or been lost to mind control. Jupiter City was once filled with brightly costumed superheroes and villains, but nowadays, there’s nothing left but the Dark. But they didn’t make any promises about not jumping through strange portals that lead to a comic book world.

Owen and Bethany have sworn off jumping into books for good. Bethany travels to a new fictional world to rescue her father in this third book in the New York Times bestselling series, Story Thieves - which was called a “fast-paced, action-packed tale” by School Library Journal- from the author of the Half Upon a Time trilogy.
