A thrilling coming-of-age urban fantasy filled with suspense, unexpected plot turns, and a great ending that segues nicely into book three.
Lucid Revenge picks up where book one in the Dreamwaker Saga left off. Wynter, the main character, has suffered terribly at the hands of her nemesis, and now Wynter’s closest friends must come together to make things right.
At first, I was a little skeptical that a story centered around a comatose patient would make for a compelling read, but the author has created a vivid and immersive world where this character’s delicate health situation only adds to the suspense and mystery.
I find the idea of lucid dreaming fascinating, and the author has done an excellent job of bringing this concept to life. But what kept me glued to the pages was its cast of super engaging characters. Jezebel, for one, is an outright detestable villain that I often wanted to punch in the face! Oh, if only I could lucid dream…
For fans of the genre, The Dreamwaker Saga is a must-read, particularly those who enjoy clever references to 80s pop culture and music. This series is chock-full of them, lending it a certain Stranger Things vibe.
For the best dreamwaking experience, I would recommend reading the series in order.
