The Oneironaut 02
Description
In this character driven page-turner, Rain, a brilliant bespeckled outcast scientist, finds herself drawn from a life of oppression into the liberating world of illusion.
Called by the Willows, the keepers of dreams, she is chosen to lead the rebellion against The Bureau, a dystopian, enveloping regime that controls society by forcing its citizens to take a MetaNoia pill which prevents them from dreaming.
Follow Rain as she leads this uprising against the chilling totalitarian ideations of the Department of Dreams--where bureaucrats systematically search out, torture and murder the few dreamers that remain.
On this journey, Rain unlocks the profound magic accessible through extreme lucid dream, which The Bureau has ruthlessly sought to eliminate from humankind.
If Rain and the Willows fail, the secret order of The Oneironauts will be lost and with it our ability to dream, to heal and to manifest our possibilities through radical imaginings.
