Fictional Characters are AwesomeIn the age of easy access to diverse entertainment, fans of fictional characters are more powerful than ever before.The success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is a case in point. Fans of the comic book characters propelled the series to more than 10 billion dollars in gross revenue, and the fictional universe looks poised to capture even more eyeballs (and wallets) with its forays into streaming TV and further movie phases. The future is bright!And that's not the only Extended Universe that has captured the hearts of hundreds of millions of dedicated fans across the globe today. The Harry Potter Wizarding World, the DC Extended Universe, the Lord of the Rings fandom, and multiple anime virtual worlds are just a few of the many franchises that bring joy to people in 200 different countries!It's not just movies, books, and TV shows any more: as games become more and more cinematic, they are starting to tell rich and multi-layered stories, and create characters that diverse audiences identify with like never before. A simple plumber (Mario) now shares his world with fully 3D people and animals and objects that are each more interesting than the other. Games like Red Dead Redemption feel like the experience of a book translated into an interactive movie.Mythology is also an important source of the fictional characters to whom this book pays loving tribute. From the Greek Gods whose adventures thrilled us when we were little, to the Norse Gods who have been popularized by Marvel Comics and the Thor movies, to gods from African and American mythology, the ancient deities feature heavily in these pages!The puzzles in this book are easy to understand, but difficult to master. I will ease you in - the first few chapters contain trivia snippets and puzzles that are relatively easy, but I will ratchet up the difficulty level steadily, till the last few chapters have you learning about many new characters whom you never knew existed!And let's not forget about books. Since the invention of printing several centuries ago, hundreds of millions of books have been written, and many of them have left behind characters that live on in our minds, hearts, and souls long after their creator left the mortal world. Books - and literature - are often the source of the richest portrayals of men, women, and animals, and become the nuclei of extended universes in other forms of media.There are also quirky characters from the worlds of advertising and sports and country mascots: everything fictional can be found in this book, and you will love them all!In this book, you can test whether you are the biggest Fictional Character fan in the world. Anyone who can score above 85% on the puzzle challenges in this book is a legend.You will be entertained!
