Description by Author:
The
journey through Olympia continues.
Morpheus,
the God of Dreams, leads The Order, descendants of Olympians, to the brink of
darkness with one goal, close the Ivory Gate.
Failure
in their task would see Icelos, the God of Fear, unleash terror upon the world.
In
need of respite, Pasithea the Goddess of Rest, welcomes them with everything
they could dream of. But some things are too good to be true, and not
everything that’s true is what you dream of.
All
the wonders and secrets of Olympia are waiting to be discovered, but what
secrets will they uncover about themselves?
They
will face something darker than any monster of myth or imagination. Each other.
For
Mara Nightingale, a student at Ashwood University, having two guys compete for
her affection would be a dream, but Mara’s dreams take her to a place of
Nightmares that she can’t control.
With
people in Ashwood still going missing, Mara continues to unravel the mystery,
but someone else is also on the case, someone who knows her past.
To
uncover the truth, she must follow her heart to find the man of her dreams and
she knows just where to start.
Join
The Order and don’t be afraid to dream.
