For some, the magic of certain books lasts a lifetime. For Thomas Abbey, the works of reclusive children’s fantasy author Marshall France have been an essential part of his life ever since he was a boy.

Son of a famous movie star, Abbey is now approaching middle age having spent too many years trying to get out from under the shadow of just ‘being the son of…’ and finding something meaningful in his life.

When he meets the puppeteer Saxony Gardner, who shares his passion for the France books, together they decide to collaborate on a biography of their favorite author. To do so, they must travel to the small town of Galen where France spent much of his life. Once there, they must gain the permission to write the book from France’s daughter Anna who is very protective of her father’s legacy.

What happens to them after they arrive in Galen and receive Anna’s blessing to write the story of her father’s life is beyond their wildest dreams. A story that Marshall France himself might have written…

Surprising story! One of my favourites. The female characters were read as if they were struggling for breath or were ready to faint any second, that's the only minus.

This book had a really strong start. I was eager to find out what was going to happen next, but in the final acts of the book it kind of petered out. The reveal was meh, a lot of vagueness, skimming past and an underwhelming ending that annoyed me a bit.
