Alys: The Terra Mirum ChroniclesKiri Callaghan2013

They are called Dreamers; mortals who possess a gift of remaining connected to Terra Mirum even after waking. They are the artists, the believers, the mad men. But in a war between Dream and Nightmare, Alyson Carroll's gift could mean her own salvation, or an entire world's destruction. A dark retelling of the classic tale of the lost girl with an unparalleled imagination, Alys is a story about facing our fears, accepting the things we cannot change, and having the courage to pursue those we can.
