Product Description

Will slipped on the left glove and twitched a finger to establish a link to the kite tronics. A shiver of electric energy ran through his hands as they synched to his nerves through the gloves. Will lives with his father in a future domed Canberra where citizens are safe from extreme weather events, dangerous solar radiation and civil unrest. He does not question his carefully controlled existence until the recurrence of an old nightmare propels him on a dangerous quest. Gradually Will discovers his dreams hold cryptic clues that lead him into a shadowy alternate dimension. Here he must grapple with dark forces that operate in both worlds, with the help of his best friend Ender, her brilliant but difficult twin sister Magda, and a mysterious gift from his uncle.

    Will is a dreamwalker, but he doesn't know it yet. His uncle recently died in his sleep, and Will is visiting his uncle's apartment for the first time since. Although it only happens when Will is alone in his uncle's apartment, the building speaks to him in his own voice. Will finds this unsettling but only shares his discoveries with his best friend, Ender. Ender's twin sister, Magda, disappears without her family knowing why. After several strange occurrences, Will discovers he can walk into other people's dreams. But the dreamscape is full of devourers—powerful, dark entities seeking to control and destroy dreamwalkers. Dreamwalkers like Magda. Will has remained hidden thanks to his uncle's experiments, so is he the only one left who can save her? An engaging read for teenagers that combines fantasy and modern technology to create a futuristic dystopian adventure.
