Description
This gothic retelling of Alice in Wonderland paints a dark yet touching tale of magic and unknown realities, with an eclectic mix of characters, including a host of fantastical creatures alongside the author's own re-imaginings of the Mad Hatter, Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts.
Between layers of deceit and magic, nothing is as it seems.
Alison Wilde is an ordinary girl in a nearly normal world, until an uncharacteristic turn of events shifts reality, as she knows it, completely upside down.
Plunged into the Netherworld, with little memory of her life back on Earth, she is faced with a host of horrifying fantastical creatures, some more familiar than others.
But as her newfound companions attempt to guide her through their unsettling and tumultuous realm, dark forces are at work which threaten the very fabric of the Universe, and who will stop at nothing to prevent Alison from achieving the potential her destiny holds.

Schweitzer Classification
Person
Bruce loves to write about other realms, alternate realities, monsters and mayhem; to make people think about their own lives while getting lost in someone else's.
Obsessed with horror from an early age, Bruce was born and raised in Leeds, West Yorkshire, graduating from Humberside University with a degree in Exhibition & Museum Design. He has worked in many fields, ultimately finding success as a multi award winning Public House Manager and Brewer.
Bruce has always strived for perfection in everything he does, and receiving diagnoses for ADHD and OCD in his adult life were lightbulb moments, allowing him to set aside his self-doubt and channel his different way of thinking into creating unique, dynamic stories. After the infamous COVID lockdowns and a personal tragedy in 2022, Bruce turned his attention to writing as a way to cope, with Dream Walker being his first published novel. He now lives in Accrington with his infant daughter.
