Sun & Dream
by J. Steven Lamperti
Anise has power in her dreams – too much power.
When your dreams can change the world, you need to learn to control them.
Anise’s uncle Sebastian takes her to the Academy, the school where the wizards of Liamec learn to use their powers.
But the people in Anise’s small village are not the only ones who notice the young girl’s abilities. Who is the Watcher, the malevolent presence Anise feels in her dreams, and why is Helios, the sun-god, protecting her?
While Anise studies the ways of the wizards, a dark secret that hangs over the founding of the Academy threatens to unravel reality and destroy the land of Liamec.

Warning: you will need to read book one to be able to follow everything happening in this book. Anise is a great character, and it’s easy to like her. Her time at the school as well as her journey there were engaging, and the plot moves along smoothly. I loved being able to explore more of Liamec and the peoples that inhabit it, as the world is very well-developed. Lamperti’s mastery of description makes it so easy to get lost in the story, and you’ll easily lose time once you start reading. An excellent addition to a great series!
J. Steven Lamperti enjoys the weather and culture of the bay area in northern California, along with his wife Andrea, their three daughters, their dog Kai, and their two cats. Recently he left a long-time career as a computer programmer to pursue his lifelong ambition of writing.
