Publisher Description
From the number one New York Times best-selling author of The Raven Boys, a mesmerizing story of dreams and desires, death and destiny.
The dreamers walk among us...and so do the dreamed. Those who dream cannot stop dreaming — they can only try to control it. Those who are dreamed cannot have their own lives — they will sleep forever if their dreamers die.
And then there are those who are drawn to the dreamers. To use them. To trap them. To kill them before their dreams destroy us all.<./P>
Ronan Lynch is a dreamer. He can pull both curiosities and catastrophes out of his dreams and into his compromised reality.
Jordan Hennessy is a thief. The closer she comes to the dream object she is after, the more inextricably she becomes tied to it.
Carmen Farooq-Lane is a hunter. Her brother was a dreamer...and a killer. She has seen what dreaming can do to a person. And she has seen the damage that dreamers can dor. But that is nothing compared to the destruction that is about to be unleashed....
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Maggie Stiefvater follows up her epic Raven Cycle with a dark but never grim YA fantasy, the first book in the Dreamer Trilogy. Ronan Lynch can manifest objects into existence simply by dreaming them. There are others like him, including Jordan, who has turned this skill into a lucrative sideline in art forgery, and also far more dangerous people who want to bring about the end of the world. Stiefvater’s realistic, relatable small-town setting is fascinating, and her characters—both the dreamers and the dreamed—feel like flesh and blood. Actor Will Patton (whose voice you may recognize from many of Stephen King’s audiobooks) punches up his soothing reading style with colorful character voices that add fun and urgency to the story. We recommend listening to Call Down the Hawk just before bedtime and observing what you dream up.
