Reviews:
- “The authors recount Leena’s experience: a short boat trip, recording time and temperature, looking carefully at an individual crab, getting her dog to wait patiently, and counting while her mother tallies. Jones’ digital paintings resemble animated films; she makes particular use of the spotlight effects of the moonlight. “ – Kirkus Reviews
- “The illustrations are beautiful- full-paged and really realistic looking. The font is large, made for easy reading to a class, and I think this book would be a great addition to an elementary class. “ – GoodReads review
- “The lovely illustrations use just the right amount of tones to make readers feel as though they, too, are working under cover of the night. “ – GoodReads review

Published: December 2014

Like every kid in Solasenda, Kiva Stone has been far too busy training for one of the five town guilds to think about something as useless as dreaming. But when she and her sister DeeDee uncover a mysterious plot to get rid of them, their only hope lies with a shadowy group of people who wield unimaginable powers drawn from their dreams. As the girls escape with them up the Varruvyen river, they start learning secret Dreaming Way techniques that have been forbidden for centuries. But how can they learn enough to stand against the enemies chasing them?
