REVIEW: Dream Killers by SM Blooding

Dreamkillersbanner1


DK S1 Covers
The Sea of Dreams spat me out with no memories, no idea of who I was or what my purpose might be. When Captain Bo, dream killer extraordinaire, arrived, I took a chance to explore. On the road of discovery, I tripped upon dreamplanes floating dead in a graveyard, scared children attempting to survive their dreams turned nightmare, strange guardians, rogue Dreamlanders, and ships with hearts of silver. I learned more about Dreamland than I ever thought possible. But people are dying. They're disappearing. Dreamland is twisting, shifting, ripping. I don't know how best to help, how to save those I've met, who have wormed their way into my heart. If only I knew who I was, what I'd been born to do. Then I found out. I know who I am. I wish I didn't. Dream Killers is geared for fans of Once Upon a Time. The first season (Spring 2014) consists of 3 novellas called episodes. It follows River as he discovers who he is and his role in Dreamland. Dream Killers is to Dreamland Stories what Agents of Shield is to the Marvel movies. Dreamland is an intense, rich, fascinating world with lots going on. If you like fairy tales, are looking for something new,try this one.

My Rating: 3 stars

My Review: I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
These three stories were so different from each other, but still connected. The whole world, a type of dreamscape, was so well-written. But it was a dreamscape so whatever you can possibly imagine, it was there, and then some. Sometimes, things were so colorful and fantastical that it reminded me of what I have heard LSD trips are like.
I would have liked more explanation of the world. It felt like I was dropped in the middle of an ocean and expected to swim. It was overwhelming, and confusing at times. Once the storyline shone through, it got better for me. There were times when it was just so disjointed and confusing.
I agree with the synopsis, it is a very intense read, very active, almost too much going on.
