Leverage meets Jasper Fforde in this new series of novellas from the fan-favorite author of Geekomancy.
Fantasy. Mystery. Science Fiction. We know these genres from TV and comics and more, but in Genrenauts, each genre is also a world unto itself, populated with archetypal characters and filled with the tropes we all know and love.
When a story goes-off track, you send in the Genrenauts. This team of narrative specialists travels across dimensions to find, evaluate, and fix broken stories, lest the ripples manifest as violence and upheaval in our own world.
Wounded Genrenaut Mallery York returns to active duty just in time for the team to be deployed to the Rom-Com region of the Romance world. There, everyone is beautiful, office workers can afford palatial midtown apartments, and hearts are won and broken on every corner.
But before they can fix the broken love story, they have to find it. Mallery takes the lead, bringing her expertise to bear and leading Leah to wonder whether there’s a space for her on the team now that Mallery is back.
The team scours dating sites, cocktail bars, and jogging paths looking for the right pair of lovers to reconnect before time runs out and the ripples from the story breach lay waste to romance back on Earth.
Though the third in the series, this episode a great jumping-on point for new readers!
