SUMMARY:August Fab Fantasy Book Club: The Franchise by Thomas Elrod
DESCRIPTION:Come join the discussion – wine and apps are free\, and –as always– our clubs are free and open to all\, PLUS the book club picks are offered at the 10% off book club discount! \n\n\n\nThis month\, we’re chatting about The Franchise by Thomas Elrod\, a wildly imaginative fantasy that combines the epic scale of Game of Thrones with the reality-bending intrigue of “The Truman Show.”  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe world of Malicarn has everything fantasy readers could want—dragons\, magic\, wizards\, warriors\, and kingdoms locked in conflict. But there’s a catch: Malicarn is actually a Hollywood-owned fantasy realm created for a blockbuster film franchise. Most of its inhabitants have no idea their world is fictional. They live\, fight\, and die believing their scripted lives are real. \n\n\n\nWhen a fan-favorite actor begins to suspect the truth\, he sets out to challenge the studio’s control and awaken others to the reality around them. Equal parts epic adventure\, satire\, and philosophical exploration\, this novel questions power\, free will\, and the stories that shape our lives. Both entertaining and thought-provoking.
