출판사 설명
Some lives are bigger than one reality. Because they have to be. The day Mara Lantern meets herself, her life gets bigger. When she meets her brother from an alternate universe, it becomes more complicated.
And when her new mentor says creatures from other realms are invading this world, she thinks it's absurd. Until he explodes into a cloud of dust and reassembles himself. That makes her doubt.
And then he says only she can stop the invaders.That makes her afraid.
--------
Join Mara Lantern and her companions in a seven-volume science fiction adventure through reality, time and space, where they encounter everything from steampunk dream worlds to artificial humans, from dragons to disembodied spirits, where metaphysics is science and magic is just one belief from coming true.

Brilliant and amazing, yet frustrating.
This universe, the plot, style of writing,.. amazing! I haven’t seen or heard some of the philosophy which is base in this series, so, very original! I applaud this author for a wonderful take on the theory of parallel universes. The characters are very likable and relatable. Description of environments and narration of character’s thoughts are so well done, it’s like a movie in my mind.
My one frustration (and it’s a biggie) is due to the main character repeatedly NOT using an ability until she (or someone she cares about) is 1 second from death. Repeatedly! Yes, admittedly, she wouldn’t have learned exactly “this”, or experienced “that”, and the book would’ve ended 10 chapters earlier, but dangit! All the main characters were forced to suffer sooo much more than if she’d squealed, waved a hand and been confident! I hated seeing them go through so much torture.
Alas, in our reality, enduring such is what builds character, strengthens morals, and is the basis of experience in our everyday lives. I’m probably just grumping about it because I read to escape everyday life, lol.
I’m going in for one more book. If I feel the same, halfway through it, you won’t see a review from me. If you see I left a review, I either loved or hated the next in line.
