YA fantasy
Date Published: January 21, 2020
Jack Galloway has had enough of life and is chasing a high he just can’t
seem to find. Upon meeting with a drug dealer from his school, he is given
some mysterious, bean-shaped pills that just so happen to be nothing but
beans. However, Relatively Normal beans do not grow miles and miles into the
sky overnight, drawing attention from everyone around and destroying the
very idea of reality on Earth.
Now, in order to restore his Relatively Normal world, Jack must embark on a
mission with a girl he barely knows from high school, Red Crawford, who just
so happens to be the only one he knows who has encountered a tear in the
non-magical reality they live in.
The beanstalk, too tall and too wide to climb, leads them down a rabbit
hole to the strange and nonsensical Underland, where they must go through
insane trials in order to reach the answer to their problems — the Giants,
magical creatures who live in Overland and can rid the Relatively Normal
world of that pesky beanstalk. However, the beanstalk and its effects on
reality might just be the least of their worries when they reach the dark,
mysterious Overland.
Excerpt
Jack sighed. “Listen. It wasn’t a coincidence that yesterday, I
decided to try some harder drugs. It wasn’t a coincidence that Shy
gave me those beans. It wasn’t a coincidence that you were the one to
find me after I passed out. It wasn’t a coincidence that we’ve
been experiencing all of this together. I know we don’t even know each
other that well, but for some weird reason, I feel like we’re in this
together. If we want to fix this, it can’t just be me. It can’t
just be you. It has to be both of us. We’re the reason the portal is
opening, and we’re the ones that have to close it.”
