Would it be ok to say Amelia has the most wonderfull case of stockholm sindrome when she already was half crazy over Seth just by looking at him? I can´t blame her, Seth is just to die for hawt, what can I say, you guys know I´m a sucker for the Tall, Dark and mysterious kind, he´s also sexy and powerfull. He needs Amelia to help him in order to escape his curse but putting her at risk is no easy thing to do when all he can think of is to keep her safe. Amelia´s life hasn´t been easy and having to wrap his head around all the information seth gives her , well let me tell you if I was her I would be half way to Arkham right now LOL!!! I really liked the dynamic between the characters, they make a really good couple, I´m dying to have book two in my hands, cause this book is epic I tell you that. The fistt book in a series needs to be bold enough that traps the reader but a the same time it need to draw the basis for the restof the series, Dreamscape does that and then some. The author has an amazing eye for detail, hell I would love to have a house like Seth´s LOL!!!! the descrptions are perfect I could picture every nook and cranny of every place, simply wonderful. What I loved the most about the book is that Amelia didn´t take things just like that, she´s an intelligent young woman. If someone would come to me and tell me that, I don´t know ... Barney the Purple Dinosaur really existed I would be rocking back and forth and shouting bloody murderer LOL!!!! and she´s well real, her reactions are as real as they can get. She´s an amazing well developed character that reacts according to reason , yup no Mary Sue here and I love it!!!!!! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Every night before Amelia falls asleep she makes a wish to dream of him-the man who calls her to their beautiful private oasis, her sanctuary where she is free of her greedy landlord's threats. But tonight, he will not call Amelia to him. Tonight, another man will step into her world to claim her. Tonight, Amelia's shattering reality will crumble-and disappear into the Dreamscape...along with her freedom.When Amelia dreams tonight, her nightmare becomes her new world where Seth is her captor and anything is possible...except escape. Seth needs Amelia to break the curse that binds him to the Dreamscape. He must convince her that she was made to free him, that she was made to join him.For if he fails, he will never escape his prison, and he will lose Earth to the Netherworld where the evil Erobos wait to consume the human realm and everything in it. If he fails, Seth will lose the one thing that matters to him: Amelia. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Amelia is a great character. Despite her rough life, and her equally harsh treatment by most people around her, she's fairly well adjusted. She's strong, fierce, and isn't afraid to take care of business when the need is there. I have to say that I honestly was rooting for her from the very first few pages. Even before Seth even came into the picture, I knew Amelia could hold her own.
Which is why when Seth did make his way into the story, I was pretty wary of him. His character is, for lack of a better word, strange. He comes off as very obsessive at first, in an almost creepy way, and it isn't until you read on that you really find out why. I'll admit it took me a long time to like him and, even once I did, I never fully fell in love with him. He doesn't make a very good first impression, let's leave it at that.
However once the Dreamscape comes into play, things get interesting. I've seen other reviewers mention how they never quite understood the mechanics of the Netherworld, and I honestly agree. However allowing yourself to get lost in it really helps. Here is a world where anything is possible. Which means that everyone would want to control it, right? There's a classic battle of good vs. evil here, and Amelia is right in the center.
The beginning of the story is a little choppy, but I promise that if you read it it gets so much better. By the time I reached the ending I was amazed. Dreamscape is a book that I picked on a whim, and I am honestly glad I did. I'd like to see a little more character building with people other than Amelia. Also it'd be nice to understand the Netherworld better. For now though, I'm content. Check this one out! ( )
