Exacting Essence (The Immortal Nightmare Cycle #1)
Remember waking up late in the night after a nightmare? Your mother holding you tight and whispering everything would be all right? She lied.
Evil clowns haunted Megan’s dreams for years. Even though nobody ever said she was crazy, she knew they were all thinking it. With her life falling apart, she turns suicidal until a new therapist suggests the impossible: dreams are real. Nightmares are living, breathing predators, feeding off dreamer’s fears by exacting essence.
Most, of course, forget theirs as soon as they wake up. Megan is not so lucky. She is also not so powerless.
But is even a power nurtured in her dreams enough to fight off the horrors lurking just beyond the veil of sleep?
My Review:
Another great one from James. I was pulled into the story immediately. It takes the reader to the world of dreams. We are drawn into not just Megan’s nightmares but several other characters’ dreams as well. The reader goes along with Megan as she fights to gain control and end her nightmares once and for all only to find out that it might not possible for that to happen. She will learn things about herself and why the nightmares are happening. It has some great twists and turns. There are some very unique characters as well. Readers who love books that are creepy will enjoy this one. I suggest adding it to your TBR list. I look forward to reading the next one
