So Far Away - Paperback

by Kat Mellon (Author)

After two months of intensive group therapy, six individuals embark on a Thera Quest Inc. session-a simulated fantasy adventure guaranteed to incite lasting behavioral change in the real world. For thirty-year-old Elizatine, this means overcoming her beastly shopping addiction alongside five strangers with their own problems: Tanner and Lana, two middle-aged alcoholics; Amara, a young ambulatory wheelchair user with POTS mourning her loss of agency; Rowan, a thirty-something wracked by guilt from the death of his younger brother, and Felix; a charming and depressed entertainer. Within the simulation, the six must work alongside each other to deliver a cursed book while encountering whimsical hybrid creatures, unsettling personal trials, and hulking manifestations of their inner demons.
