The Vivid Dreamer: Book One of The Dreamscapers Trilogy

by Kurt Wagner, Suzanne Wyles, Jason Gronich

Overview

Jeffrey Alexandres, tortured by increasingly vivid dreams, flees home to save his family from the surreal occurrences that are plaguing him. A deadly fire sparks his fear and sets alight his desperate need for answers. Two ambitious doctors offer him hope in the guise of a cure for his rare condition, when in truth they seek to weaponize his reality-altering dreams. Only by traversing the ever-dangerous dream realms does Jeffrey stand a chance of keeping himself and all reality from being washed back into the chaos from which all things sprang.

Editorial Reviews

***** This novel is a real breakthrough in modern writing. While it contains some of the characteristic archetypes of its genre, it presents them in new, fresh ways. The stylistic imagery and characterization both in the dream sequences and in the main story, make this book a true page turner. I couldn't put it down.

***** This book was initially suggested to me from a friend. I asked to barrow it and he loves the book so much that he wouldn't let me take it home. So I ordered it for myself and it did not disappoint. Great writing and story. I am excited for more from this/these authors.

***** I really enjoyed the book- from the beginning, the plot grabbed me and I frantically read to find what would happen next. I was always intrigued with the genre-shifting and found so much food for thought in the meaning of the text. I definitely recommend it!
