About this ebook
It's a future time. A time of extremely long life spans, almost perfect health, human colonization of planets throughout the galaxy—and dreamlessness.
It has been over three hundred years since any human being’s sleep has been disturbed by the anarchy of dreams.
Centuries earlier, at the time of the first alien contacts, humanity made the proverbial trade with the devil—its basic freedoms in exchange for security and safety. An unexpected side effect of this swap was the gradual cessation of dreaming. Then an S3 fully armed starship disappears through a hole in space—A GATEWAY. All that remains of the huge vessel is a scattercast message heard throughout the galaxy:
YOUR MACHINES ARE USELESS HERE. YOUR WAY OF THINKING IS OF NO VALUE HERE. FOR BEYOND HERE LIE DREAMS!!
And the race was on. Overnight finding those capable of dreaming becomes the most important issue of state—the only issue of state.
FIND ME DREAMERS!
Five raids on five distant planets. Massive destruction and the kidnapping of five young people who might possess the most valuable commodity in the dreamless galaxy—the gene structure that may enable them to dream and navigate through the Gateway.
SO BEGINS THE DREAM CHRONICLES.
