The dream chooses the dreamer.
Since he was five years old, Lazlo Strange has been obsessed with the mythic lost city of Weep, but it would take someone bolder than he to go in search of it. Then a stunning opportunity presents itself - in the person of a hero called the Godslayer and a band of legendary warriors, and he has to seize his chance or lose his dream forever.
What happened in Weep to cut it off from the world? What did the Godslayer slay that went by the name of god? And what is the mysterious problem he now seeks help in solving?
The answers await in Weep, but so do many more mysteries - including the blue-skinned goddess who visits Lazlo's dreams . . .

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The author of the popular Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy returns with the first of two linked fantasy novels centred on orphan Lazlo Strange. All of Laini Taylor’s usual talents are on display here: colourful characters, enthusiastic world-building and a tone that’s equally engaging for teen or adult readers. Strange the Dreamer adds an anti-war message to its fairytale-style delivery, and Taylor balances her vivid imagination with a simple theme about the power of stories—and how our life choices shape our own.
