The Oneironaut

WHAT IF YOUR DREAMS WERE REAL... AND REALITY WAS THE DREAM?

Aziz Mandral has a degree in journalism, a spectacularly disappointing career, and wealthy parents who have built an empire teaching everyone else how to succeed.

The irony isn't lost on him.

Broke, disillusioned and back under his parents' roof, Aziz has become an unwilling prisoner of a life he never wanted. His greatest ambitions have been reduced to surviving family dinners, meaningless work and the occasional night of punk rock and cheap beer.

Then he falls asleep.

And everything goes gloriously, catastrophically wrong.

Beyond the waking world lies the Dreaming, an astonishing realm where time can stretch a single night into centuries, entire kingdoms rise from human imagination, ancient powers wage ruthless wars, and three mysterious whales guard an ocean containing the knowledge of humanity itself.

It's beautiful. It's terrifying.

And something is tearing it apart.

When an unprecedented force threatens the fragile boundary between dreams and reality, Aziz finds himself caught in a conflict involving tyrannical rulers, legendary creatures, a dangerously unpredictable warrior monk and Kazuo, an eccentric scientist known as the Cartographer of Dreams.

There's just one problem.

Aziz has absolutely no idea what he's doing.

And the more he discovers about the Dreaming, the more unsettling the questions become. Why has the natural order begun to collapse? What happened to the ancient powers that maintained it? And why does everyone seem to know something about Aziz that nobody is willing to tell him?

Some dreams are worth chasing.

Others might destroy the world.

Blending epic fantasy, surreal adventure, razor-sharp humour and an unmistakably rebellious spirit, The Oneironaut: Reverie - Book One launches a trilogy where imagination has consequences, reality has no fixed borders, and the most dangerous thing in existence may be the person who least understands his own power.
