You think you're safe when you sleep? Think again... Beauty and the Beast meets Hades and Persephone in this now complete fantasy romance series. I used to think the supernatural world was a myth. Shapeshifters, demons, werewolves, vampires? No way were they real… Well, I’m here to tell you they are. They simply aren’t what you think. You probably face them every single night when you dream, but when you wake, it’s all a blur. My name is Amelia Blake, and I’m a dreamwalker…at least that’s what Seth told me the night he kidnapped me and brought me into the Dreamscape. According to him, it’s the true name for la la land and where we all go when we dream. He claims he and his shapeshifter brothers send dreams to humans to help them cope with life. He also claims I agreed to help him break a curse keeping him imprisoned in the dream realm. Thing is I don’t remember him. In fact, I think he’s crazy, even though he’s crazy sexy, but I’m trapped with him and will do anything to find a way out. The only problem is I’ve done something really stupid, and now the Erobos are after me. If Seth’s right, these guys not only send nightmares, they can steal a person’s soul. If I’m not careful, they’ll take mine. If I don’t discover a way to beat them, they’ll come for yours next. Think magic doesn’t exist in our world?

While walking on a mountain path, a young boy discovers a yellow spider spinning her web and as he quietly watches her, he sees the world from a different perspective.

A world-renowned Pomo basket weaver and medicine woman, Mabel McKay expressed her genius through her celebrated baskets, her Dreams, her cures, and the stories with which she kept her culture alive. She spent her life teaching others how the spirit speaks through the Dream, how the spirit heals, and how the spirit demands to be heard. Greg Sarris weaves together stories from Mabel McKay's life with an account of how he tried, and she resisted, telling her story straight—the white people's way. Sarris, an Indian of mixed-blood heritage, finds his own story in his search for Mabel McKay's. Beautifully narrated, Weaving the Dream initiates the reader into Pomo culture and demonstrates how a woman who worked most of her life in a cannery could become a great healer and an artist whose baskets were collected by the Smithsonian. Hearing Mabel McKay's life story, we see that distinctions between material and spiritual and between mundane and magical disappear. What remains is a timeless way of healing, of making art, and of being in the world. Sarris’s new preface, written expressly for this edition, meditates on Mabel McKay’s enduring legacy and the continued importance of her teachings.
