Read the Fantasy Hive interview with Daniel DraymUnlike stories that require the reader — and the writer — to move into a completely new world, the world of Dream Whisperer is very recognisable… until the reader realises that nothing is what it seems.
Meet the villains
A full-on fantasy epic, Dream Whisperer delivers a rousing, large-scale adventure that rivals the very best in its genre. (…) From concept to execution Draym’s plot is flawless, confidently navigating multiple threads with an abundance of detail to create a delightfully dark dance of manipulation that delivers a genuinely disquieting sense of time and place as he breathes new life into well-known historical and literary characters. (…) Setting a high bar for future releases in the Fleming Chronicles, Dream Whisperer is recommended without reservation.
