This is a comic, female empowerment story that is reasonably well written. Starr Weatherby is an actress. Not a very successful one so she is waiting tables at a diner. She's pretty fed up with the wandering hands of the manager so when she is offered a chance to audition for a reality show called "Tune In Tomorrow", she leaps at the chance, leaping literally into another dimension.

The image on the front cover is a centaur but a main character is a faun. And not a proper faun with a goat's tail but one with a long pointed one like a cartoon devil. Poor editing here, and not enough grounding in classic creatures, but the book is ok if you enjoy light comedy.… (meer)

Starr Weatherby's dream is to be an actress. Instead, she is waitressing while waiting for her big break. Unbeknownst to her, Starr is being watched from beyond the Veil to star in a series especially for mythic beings. Jason, the director for a mythic show, Tune in Tomorrow finally approaches Starr to offer her a gig. However, Starr must be brought through the Veil and accepted by the show's star and resident diva, Fiona. Starr is amazed by everything on the other side of the Veil and after the shock passes, the hard part begins. Fiona is not open to another female star on the show. Fiona accepts Starr only to scheme to have her quit or get thrown out of the show. Starr wizens up to Fiona's antics, but has made an enemy out of the diva. Other than Fiona's stunts, Starr quickly falls in love with magic and beings on the other side. Starr needs to figure out how to work with Fiona and the mystery of her predecessor, Amelia, before its too late.

Tune in Tomorrow is a zany, entertaining mythical soap opera. Starr's passion and drive for performing is evident from the beginning, I was taken in by her willingness to sacrifice for her dream. A television show about humans in another realm was definitely an interesting twist and I was as amazed as Starr when she went beyond the Veil for the first time to witness a dragon security guard, camera dryads, brownie personal assistants and werepanter writers. As Starr enters the mythical world beyond the Veil for the first time, there is a lot of information to be processed and the pacing slows a bit as Starr gets to know everyone and begin filming the show. Suspense builds as Fiona attempts to boot Starr from the show intensify and Starr continues to play into her strategies. I did love exploring some of the mythical areas beyond the Tune In Tomorrow set including the alternate Central Park, the Brownie doors and their strike and the Mythic award show.
