The microphone could pick up the word even if I whispered. My hands trembled as I took off the headset, staring at the two computer screens on my desk. One screen held the text, while the other played out the scene, now frozen in time. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before opening them again. The boy named Reggie still sat there, watching Bree too close. He didn't belong. I didn't create him. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMy legs trembled as I backed away from the two screens. A million nasty possibilities raced through my mind until I forced myself to stop. I worked hard to get the narration device. I did the research to prove I wasn't a target. It was all in vain. The Rogue Narrator had entered my story. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe accidental discovery of the narration device while scientists were researching virtual reality completely changed the entertainment industry. An author could narrate a story, and the finished project would produce a book, an audio-book, and rough footage for a movie which faithfully followed every word of the original story. In the early days anyone could order a device and narrate stories, until a group of five scientists wanted to test the limits of the device. The experiment ended after three days-four of the scientists died, and the fifth ended up in a coma. Distribution of the device was shut down and didn't open again without strict laws in place. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJunior understood the reason behind these laws, which is why Bree does not know she's the main character in a story. However, when a rogue narrator hacks into the system and begins creating chaos in Junior's story, she is faced with an impossible problem: does she continue to follow the strict laws to keep herself safe, or does she risk it all to protect the characters she loves?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ellen Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1938888308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781938888304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Divertir Publishing LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"Ellen Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486402883839,"sku":"9781938888304","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c34d1c6c-604f-4dd9-a962-a25ac11c44c7.jpg?v=1778055302","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-altered-manuscript-ellen-taylor-9781938888304","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
