Not only was it completely different and surprising, I loved the main broken character and her journey to put herself back together as she learns the world around her is not what she thought it was. Tangled up in the aftermath of an explosive assassination, Ness and the only other survivor-a Nightmare boy who Ness suspects is planning to eat her-must find their way back to Newham and uncover the sinister truth behind the attack.Ģ023 is off with a bang! Rebecca Schaeffer is a new to me author and I’m just going to say I am beyond impressed and could not put City of Nightmares the first book in the City Of Nightmares Duology down. In order to prove herself, Ness cons her way into what’s supposed to be a simple job for the organization-only for it to blow up in her face. Ness will do anything to avoid becoming another victim, even if that means lying low among the Friends of the Restful Soul, a seedy organization that may or may not be a cult.īut being a member of the Friends of the Restful Soul has a price. Whether that means becoming a Nightmare that is only monstrous in appearance but is otherwise able to live a semi-normal existence, to transforming into a twisted, unrecognizable creature that terrorizes the citizens of Newham, no one is safe. Because in Newham, the city that never sleeps and the only other home Ness has known, dreaming means waking up as your worst fear. Genres: Science Fiction Fantasy, Young AdultĮver since her sister became a man-eating spider and slaughtered her way through town, nineteen-year-old Ness has been terrified-terrified of some other Nightmare murdering her, and terrified of ending up like her sister.
