Sixteen-year-old author Scott Beck never wanted to be an Immortal Writer-not after his father was killed on a mission attempting to dispatch his own villain. Scott blames Shakespeare and the Writers for his father's untimely demise, but no amount of hatred will prevent the oncoming alien attack, which has come over to reality straight from Scott's book. Scott is forced to collect his characters-an Air Force colonel, two of the best pilots on Earth, and an alien enthusiast from the year 2134-and defeat the alien king before Earth is obliterated by his ships. But an odd sickness Scott calls his Writing Fever might just kill him before the aliens have the chance. Will Scott be able to defeat the monsters he created, or will the world end in flames?
