[[Robert A. Heinlein]]'s ''[[The Number of the Beast]]'' introduces the concept of the "World as Myth" which supposes that all fictional universes are equally real and, moreover, are accessible to one another via interdimensional travel.
 
Line 6:
''[[The Number of the Beast]]'' and its two sequels make extensive use of the concept to permit a [[Massively Multiplayer Crossover]] between all the fictional universes that Heinlein wrote and those of several other authors of his era.
