This Kingdom Will Not Kill Me

Maggie, an obsessive reader of the unfinished dark fantasy series Kair Toren, wakes up inside its gritty, dangerous world. Naked and alone in a gutter, she quickly realizes she has entered the story just as the first book begins. While she possesses the unique "power" of being functionally immortal—she cannot be killed despite numerous attempts—the characters she has grown to love are mortal and facing a looming cataclysmic war.

Armed with encyclopedic knowledge of the plot, characters, and world-building, Maggie navigates a landscape of dueling princes, deadly assassins, and magical creatures. Rather than seeking a way home, she enmeshes herself in the kingdom's lethal politics to rewrite the tragic ending she knows is coming. Working from the shadows, she gathers a motley crew—including a former lady’s maid and a suspicious soldier—to save the kingdom of Rellas from destruction.
