Forever Is Eternity (Blackwick #1)

In 1930s England, eighteen-year-old Betty Talbin is a servant to wealthy relatives. Trapped in dismal circumstances, she relies on her love of reading to escape the drudgery of real life. Books become magical portals into other worlds where she befriends the characters from her favorite stories. She soon learns that others share her gift, a secret society called the Inter-Story Intercessors, who, along with the fictional characters she has met, join her quest to save her cousin from the clutches of an evil vampire and the universe from greedy, titanic dragons. Will her cousin’s soul be lost forever in the dragon underworld? Will Betty discover a new life path through the eternal world of books? Will she discover her greatest power of all—belief in herself?
