Description

Tom Taylor's life was screwed from day one. His father created the Tommy Taylor fantasy series, boy-wizard novels with popularity-on par with Harry Potter. The problem is Dad modeled the fictional epic so closely to Tom's real life that fans are constantly-comparing him to his counterpart, turning him into the lamest variety of Z-level celebrity. In the final novel, it's even implied that the fictional Tommy will crossover into the real world, giving delusional fans more excuses to harass Tom.-When an enormous scandal reveals that Tom might really be a boy-wizard made flesh, Tom comes into contact with a very mysterious,-very deadly group that's secretly kept tabs on him all his life. Now, to protect his own life and discover the truth behind his origins, Tom will travel the world, eventually finding himself at locations all featured on a very special map -- one kept by the-deadly group that charts places throughout world history where fictions have impacted and tangibly shaped reality, those stories-ranging from famous literary works to folktales to pop culture. And in the process of figuring out what it all means, Tom will-find himself having to figure out a huge conspiracy mystery that spans the entirety of the history of fiction. The War of Words is over, but the real world and fictional world are both in turmoil, and the damage seems to be spreading.-When a rash of mysterious disappearances catches the eye of young detective Didge Patterson, it becomes apparent that the cult-known as The Church of Tommy is involved. Can Tommy heal "The Wound" before the real and fictional worlds crumble?
