Description
This year … take a road trip of a lifetime, in an automobile that’s the first, and last, of its kind, in a world where the thrill and suspense of the movies come to life ... and your Counterpart has a script of its own …
Welcome to Movieville!
Intrigued during an investigation, journalist Richard Morrow never imagined that following a mysterious girl into a basement would lead them, along with a group of bystanders, to a barren, barely populated new world, a world inadvertently created by the fusion of MovieMagic! and Creative Energy by burnt-out film critic, Magnus Hope.
Instantly merged with fictional Counterparts, they run, propelled by their hosts’ ongoing stories, thrust into menacing movie-like scenarios that seem to appear at random.
Meanwhile, the enigmatic Movieville Moguls seek Talents from Earth to populate their domains, deploying sinister Extras and Agents to ensnare the heroes as they search for the portal back to Earth, or to the mythical Land of Independents.
Aided, amongst others, by a conflicted Agent and a wise-cracking non-humanoid ally, the group strives to discover the truth about their Counterparts and the creation of the extraordinary world of Movieville.

Featured Reviews
A love letter to the world of film along with the plethora of various movies throughout the ages, Movieville made for an immersive and uniquely enthralling read. The plot was engaging and had good pacing throughout the story and the characters all fitted in well within the events in the book.
In terms of the setting, this was very well developed thrusting the reader into the various worlds of film and adding extra depth to the story as a whole. A fun, adventurous read.
Thankyou to Netgalley and Troubador for an arc.
