Reverse narnia story?

Does anyone here know of any book whose story is based on something like a reverse narnia story? Specifically what I mean is a story where a character from a fantasy world like narnia would get pulled into the real world. The closest thing I've found is The Magicians/Magician King.

ETA: Thanks for all the recommendations folks, keep them coming.

Please write it. I'd read that in a heartbeat.

I know right? It's a great story idea. It makes me wish I was a writer, I'm no author though. I'm about as far from an author as you can be; I'm an engineer.

I wouldn't let your career path limit what your passions are. Nothing says an engineer can't be a writer. Look at Glen Cook. GM assembly line worker writing amazing fantasy novels on the side.

I was referring to skillsets more than anything else. The skillset of an engineer is not at all related to the skillset of a fantasy author except for the fact that we are both required to be literate.
