(It used to be 30% but now it's 40%! 🎊) Everyone likes fantasy stories! Swords, sorcery, adventure and excitement! But hear me out: what if we put our fantasy story INSIDE a REALISM story? All the fun of an engaging high fantasy romp, plus the cognitive dissonance of a pseudo-realistic framing sequence! Today let's talk about stories where a hero from "the real world" is shunted into a fantastical otherworld, and what that's like for readers from the REAL real world! Finally we explore the realm behind the bookshelf's weird gap… Monkeys Spinning Monkeys, Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Our content is intended for teenage audiences and up.
