Publisher's Synopsis
Life in the 21st Century is quite different than it has been in previous eras, as contemporary young people/new adults attempt to deal with the complex, chaotic society they are inheriting. For readers who enjoy a realistic flavor similar to early Judy Blume books, 'Gathering The Dreamcatchers' companion novels break new ground as one-of-a-kind characters navigate the issues of today. Issues including: home -vs- homelessness, sexuality -vs- love, community -vs- personal sovereignty, civil and legal rights, friendship, family, girl power, gender, safety -vs- abuse...and figuring out how to make this world a better place! The series was born with the first two foundational titles LIVING IN SECRET and THE SKIN OF WATER: DEFENDING THE DREAMCATCHERS as separate books containing independent characters...followed by subsequent novels which carry on from the juncture where some of these characters begin to meet up -- ESOTERICA, PARADISE FOUND, and the forthcoming potential finale LIVING IN LIGHT. Though the collection itself spans various combo, trilogy, and omnibus editions, now for the first time ever the initial two novels can be savored together under one cover as the perfect introduction for readers new to the series. Who are these "dreamcatchers" you ask? Why they are you...me...and everybody else who is lucky enough to be alive during these pivotal times. Welcome aboard...!
