Dreampunk قصص

The Dreamer awakes, the shadow goes by; the tale I have told you, that tale is a lie... Portals to magical worlds, corvids that speak the meaning of life, and more await one who sits and listens to this sharing of tales between two anachronistic raconteurs, one of whom may or may not be Geoffrey Chaucer. Reader, remember this: the tales are pure fictions. Fantasies. Except when they are not.

Dreampunk is a niche genre of speculative fiction that asks the question "Is this real?" and then follows up with "What does that even mean anyway?" Alice in Wonderland would be the prototypical example, but any anti-authoritarian investigation into the nature of dreams, reality, the self, and the universe might qualify. Examples abound in books, movies, and TV. Keep reading to see what I mean.

Mercy Waters has a secret. There's a voice in her head who comforts her and tells her fairy tales. There's only one problem: The voice won't tell Mercy her name. Cahira Tybalt has her own secret. She can move like a trained gymnast, fight like a born warrior, and speak Russian like she grew up speaking it. There's only one problem: None of these skills are hers. Bellamy Page has perhaps the most frightening secret of all: there are memories in her head that don't belong to her, and she doesn't know who they belong to. Until now. When Mercy finds out her secret friend's name, Cahira loses control of her violent instincts, and Bellamy sees a face both foreign and familiar in the mirror, the three of them are brought together to face the truth: who's memories, skills, and consciousness have been embedded into their minds? The answer will challenge everything they have ever known. Set in the near future, Embed is a science fiction/thriller novel told in split narratives that will pull you into a world full of futuristic tech fast paced intrigue.

DreamPunk, contrary to the name, doesn't necessarily have to involve dreams. They can also be visions, drug-induced or otherwise. DreamPunk is surreal sci-fi, often merging with the fantastical.

In a half-forgotten valley stitched from memory and myth, Elderglen is home to beings shaped by emotion, dreams, and discarded objects-each one echoing with the magic of what once was. At the center of it all lies The Sanctuary, a mismatched clinic where broken, wild, or unshaped beasts come to be understood-not captured, not cured, but healed. But when the beasts begin to behave strangely-howling in their sleep, shifting into forms not their own, dreaming before they're even born-the residents of the Sanctuary know something is wrong. Something in the valley has begun to unravel time and meaning. And only one person might understand how to mend what's fraying. The Beast Healer, long absent, has been called back. Told through the eyes of six strange, beautiful beings-each with hearts full of light, longing, and glitching grace-this is a story about caring for what cannot speak, decoding the poetry of broken things, and facing a world that asks not for answers, but for presence.

When confronted with an impossible choice, how do you justify your decision? Lise is a dweller, a person who can influence her dreams in a world where dreams are a reflection of humanity's perception. She pursues a pack of nightmare beasts, called fiends, which live in the collective dream and feed off the minds of the vulnerable. Her little sister is hounded by these creatures into running away from home and spreads them wherever she goes like a plague. Lise must find a way to resolve a conflict of motivation. Save the innocent and risk losing her sister or leave the people to their fate in order to reach her in time. Whatever her answer, there is darkness ahead. Her eyes may never again be colored by the dawn. - This story takes place in a world where the day-night cycle spans the rough equivalent of a year. Years are divided into 4 quadrants: the first and fourth are the night quarters, the second and third are when the sun is visible in the sky. This is not explained explicitly in the text. Chapters are relatively short and can generally be read in 10-25 minutes. - Read chapters early on my website: https://www.distortedsense.com/
