In the ethereal realm of dreams, where reality blurs and imagination reigns supreme, there are those who have the ability to traverse between dreams. They are known as Dream-Walkers. Waking up within a dream is not the way I'd have liked to find out I am one.

My name is Alex, an 18-year-old from Australia. This is how I joined the most dangerous occupation in the world.

Aldi lay on the cold floor, his heart racing and his body drenched in sweat. He had just experienced another nightmare, one of many that had been plaguing him as of late. In this dream, he was lost in a dense forest, pursued by an unseen creature that seemed determined to capture him. He had struggled and screamed for help, but there was no one to hear him. As he lay on the floor, trying to catch his breath, Aldi couldn't help but wonder what these strange dreams meant. He had always been a sound sleeper, but lately he had been waking up in a state of fear and exhaustion, feeling as though he had just run a marathon. He glanced at the old alarm clock on his bedside table, its bright red numbers announcing that it was just past four in the morning. In the distance, he could hear the faint sound of people reciting prayers at the mosque near his parents' house. Aldi sighed and sat up, rubbing his eyes. He knew he wouldn't be able to get back to sleep after the nightmare he had just had. He got to his feet and stumbled over to the window, looking out at the brightening sky. The sun was just beginning to peek over the horizon, and the birds outside were starting to chirp, signaling the arrival of a new day. Despite the fatigue and fear that still lingered within him, Aldi couldn't help but feel a sense of hope as he watched the morning dawn. Maybe today would be the day that he finally got some answers about the strange dreams that had been plaguing him.

Being able to create alternate universes in your sleep might seem like the ultimate super power, but when a malevolent force from the dream realm tracks you down in real life, how do you escape it? Seventeen-year-old dreamwalkers and life-long best friends Emma and Zoe must journey deep into the perilous, unpredictable dream realm, risking their lives while evading constant danger, in order to seek out and destroy the evil that threatens to capture their souls for eternity--even if it means they'll have to give up their super power and obliterate the dream realm forever. To be successful, they must first immerse themselves in the rich history of dreamwalking. But this knowledge will do more than teach them how to defeat the evil lurking around every corner. It will reveal dark family secrets, shattering their realities.
