Secret Origins (3) (Story Thieves)
Description
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. Owen and Bethany have sworn off jumping into
books for good. But they didn’t make any promises about not jumping through
strange portals that lead to a comic book world. Jupiter City was once filled
with brightly costumed superheroes and villains, but nowadays, there’s nothing
left but 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. The
one hero who might have stopped all of this, Doc Twilight, has been imprisoned
by the Dark. But 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. It all comes back to Bethany’s
own secret origins. 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? Read more
