'I loved every page and can't wait for the sequel!'
'Fast paced and full of magic and monsters . . . I couldn't stop turning the page'
'I absolutely adored this story, the world building was phenomenal'
'A beautifully written fantasy YA story that had me hooked from being to end'
Now get ready for even higher stakes, a love triangle that defies fate, and a quest that will test Elver, Artair and Lucian like never before in The Dreamless . . .
The world has changed. There are new gods roaming the earth, and Lucian and Artair, two souls forced to share one body, are prime targets for their wrath.
Between them both is Elver: a monster girl caught between the humanity that Artair brought back into her life, and the strange obsession that Lucian stirs within her. But she is no longer the girl that she was when they first met. Elver has been changed, too - in ways more terrifying than even she can imagine.
There is treachery at work in their midst, and as the world teeters on the edge of chaos and devastation, the battle lines must be drawn before it's too late.

Williams brilliantly weaves the tale of a monster girl, a possessed boy and the evil spirit that inhabits him, and I adored everything about this intricate, absorbing fantasy.
