The Nightmare Factory

By Johnny B. Truant & Sean Platt
The Nightmare Factory by Johnny B. Truant & Sean Platt digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

After breaching the Fog and finding the ship beyond, Eila Doyle finds herself confronting a truth: her land of Alterra, contrary to what she's been taught, isn't alone -- and Parliament, it seems, has been keeping yet another horrible secret.

 

The band of rebels at Alterra's borders is presided over by Admiral Wellington: a man who needs Eila's reality-bending talents … but requires that she turn traitor in order to provide them. Wellington's arguments are convincing, pointing to atrocities Alterra has committed and the army of dragons and demons being built by the all-too-real Dark King … but is Wellington all he seems, or does he have other motives?

 

Meanwhile Eila's friend Cora, trapped between the same forces, wages a private war -- playing both sides between Alterra and its foes, old friends who've turned enemy and new allies.

 

As her old friend suffers, Eila makes friends among the warriors of the Flock: the massive Obsidian, who wields a club. Lithe Abbie, with a score to settle. And quiet Eve, who has her own agenda. But as the big change nears, Eila and Cora both face a dilemma: are the newcomers here to liberate Alterra … or to destroy it?

 

★★★★★ "The Nightmare Factory is not only a solid followup to The Dream Engine, but it actually improves upon it." -- Erin M.

 

★★★★★ "The Nightmare Factory picks up right where The Dream Engine -- one of my favorite books of 2014 -- leaves off, and delivers on too many levels to count. I was drawn in and taken for a fast and furious ride from the start." -- Adam Bailey

“Fantastic Follow-Up! The Nightmare Factory picks up right where The Dream Engine -- one of my favorite books of 2014 -- leaves off, and delivers on too many levels to count. I was drawn in and taken for a fast and furious ride from the start. Alterra opens up in a big way and the twists and turns are better than I expected. I loved Cora's character in this book especially, but the boys introduce more, uh..."creatures" that are pretty f'n cool too. This one is a bit darker than the first, which to me is completely AWESOME! What an amazingly fun read. Looking forward to the next book in the series.”
