I received a copy of Wysteria by Howard D. Beebe as a First Reads giveaway.
I don't really have the words to say how much I loved this book! Wysteria explores the world of lucid dreaming. I know very little about this topic, but I know this is a good book.
It is one of the most positive and uplifting stories I have read in a while. The author weaves a tale of fantasy, romance, action and adventure. Many questions about the nature of dreaming, and the dream world, are explored.
There are good guys, bad guys, and in between guys. Goddesses, nymphs, immortals and everyday people. The story is so well told that my disbelief was immediately suspended and I was completely engrossed in the story. It moves along at a good pace. Even at 350 pages I read it in a matter of a few days. Wysteria is one of those books that you will be sorry has ended.
The book is written in such a way that a sequel is possible, but personally I don't think I would want one. The story is complete as is. Anything more would seem to me to be just more words. Of course I could be wrong, I'm not a writer, and Mr. Beebe has proven to me he is a word-master.
Wysteria is a story you will feel good after reading. I highly recommend it. Enjoy!
Mike
