Infinite world of Ella Jane is now a podcast! Tune in now! All episodes live on your favorite podcast apps. The universe has accidental holes but perhaps the unraveling chaos has nothing to do with accidents. Ella Jane, or EJ, isn't one for social gatherings, especially after the recent death of her father. But when her best friend drags her to a party, and the arrogant school jock throws her into the pool, EJ finds herself waking up to his face on a train in a strange new world-Estonasia, a parallel universe that eerily mirrors the paintings of her late father. And the person on the train is not him but a doppelganger... Turns out Estonasia is torn apart by interdimensional, flesh-eating creatures and a power vacuum left by the disappearance of EJ's doppelganger, a missing military general. The Empire desperately needs saving. Pressed by the Crown Princess and Prince to impersonate the missing military general, EJ is forced to step in and help restore peace and save the Empire. At first, EJ rejects this new reality, desperate to escape back to her world. But as she delves deeper into the Empire's conflict, she uncovers a shocking truth: her father's death may be more connected to this world than she ever realized-and she herself is far more entwined with its ancient struggles than she could have ever imagined. And if things weren't complicated enough, an interdimensional romance might be brewing with the person who found her, the apprentice to the royal physicist...
