The Dreamhunter's Diaries
Author: Johnny Reynolds
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1784624187
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
A satirical mirror of leading politicians and the national media, to enable them to see their grotesque image... Following on from Johnny Reynold’s first satirical novel The Big Pipedream Society, The Dreamhunter’s Diaries is a socio-political and quasi-economical satirical farce that makes reference to real-life situations. It focuses on the ludicrousness of the ruling establishment and the state-governed media. Written in the spirit of Jon Steward, the book was borne out of Johnny’s opinion that David Cameron and Ed Milliband are both equally politically irresponsible and too petty-minded to be seen as trustworthy statesmen and qualified politicians. Johnny also wrote the book in response to his anguish and despair at seeing Britain – the country that he has always been deeply committed to – in a state of decline. He has observed, with sorrow, the dignified institution of the monarchy reduce itself to a show and tourist curiosity. “The moral downfall of the institution of chuch, which in my early times was seen as a pillar of ethical standards worth following, no longer exists,” he notes. These observations have all been woven into The Dreamhunter’s Diaries. The book will appeal to those who enjoy reading about important social and political issues and who read and enjoyed Johnny’s first book, The Big Pipedream Society.

Book Description
In the ethereal world of dreams, there are champions who fight to protect the dreamer and there are demons who prey on them... Arik is such a predator. Condemned by the gods to live eternity without emotions, Arik can only feel when he's in the dreams of others. For thousands of years, he's drifted through the human unconscious, searching for sensation. Now he's finally found a dreamer whose vivid mind can fill his emptiness. Dr. Megeara Kafieri watched her father ruin himself and his reputation as he searched to prove Atlantis was real. Her deathbed promise to him to salvage his reputation has now brought her to Greece where she intends to prove once and for all that the fabled island is right where her father said it was. But frustration and bad luck dog her every step. Especially the day they find a stranger floating in the sea. His is a face she's seen many times.... in her dreams. What she doesn't know is that Arik holds more than the ancient secrets that can help her find the mythical isle of Atlantis. He has made a pact with the god Hades: In exchange for two weeks as a mortal man, he must return to Olympus with a human soul. Megeara's soul. With a secret society out to ruin her expedition, and mysterious accidents that keep threatening her life, Megeara refuses to quit. She knows she's getting closer to Atlantis and as she does, she stumbles onto the truth of what Arik really is. For Arik his quest is no longer simple. No human can know of a Dream-Hunter's existence. His dream of being mortal has quickly turned into his own nightmare and the only way to save himself will be to sacrifice the very thing he wanted to be human for. The only question is, will he?
