The Magicians: Am I Just A Shadow You Drew?

by Rachel Lawson

Lance Alexander thought he was running late for work. He thought his world was real. He thought his life had meaning.

Then, in a desperate attempt to manipulate time, he steps through a portal—only to find himself in a universe where he and his family exist only as words on a page. In this strange reality, Lance is nothing more than a character in a book, a creation of an author who unknowingly controls his fate.

Determined to confront the mind behind his suffering, Lance seeks out the writer who shaped his world. But when their meeting takes an unexpected turn, he is thrust into the halls of time, forced to reckon with the truth of his existence.

Is he merely a shadow drawn by another's hand, or does he have the power to rewrite his own destiny?

A mind-bending tale of identity, fate, and the blurred lines between fiction and reality

The Magicians: The Interview

by Rachel Lawson

What happens when a writer meets the characters she thought were only fiction?

Rachel Lawson has spent decades crafting the world of The Magicians, shaping lives, destinies, and tragedies with the stroke of a pen. But when she is pulled into an interview with Dr. Blake Alexander—her own creation—she is forced to confront a truth she never imagined: her characters are real, and they know everything.

As Blake and his son Lance unravel the mystery of their existence, Rachel must face the consequences of her storytelling. Are they merely shadows she drew, or living beings shaped by her words? And when Blake sings a haunting song of their suffering, Rachel realizes that the line between creator and creation is thinner than she ever believed.

A thought-provoking tale of reality, fiction, and the weight of imagination—where the storyteller becomes the story.
