The Terror (The Night Terror Sickness)

Something ancient stalks the fragile border between dreams and death. It comes only when the world is asleep. It whispers only two choices. Fight... and survive. Or surrender... and belong to him forever.

But fear is power. And what happens when someone stops being afraid?

In 2050, the Night Terror Sickness spreads in the only place no one can escape-sleep. It creeps through the minds of the innocent, and those who fail to resist are swallowed by living nightmares, only to awaken hollow-transformed into ravenous, mindless Feeders with an insatiable thirst for blood. Humanity is collapsing one sleeper at a time. Only one person has ever survived the Sickness. Raven.

No one knows how. No one understands why. Governments want her contained. Scientists want her studied. Desperate survivors want her dead. And something far older-something that rules the shadows of the dreaming world-wants her for itself. Because Raven didn't just survive the nightmare. She faced it. And it noticed her. Now, as the line between waking and dreaming begins to tear apart, Raven must uncover the truth behind the plague before sleep claims her again.

Because next time, she may not wake up. And if she doesn't-

Neither will humanity.
