"Dreamcatchers: After Darkness Light" is an exceptionally well written and well conceived story which unfolds over the course of 1,000 years or more. It begins with five random students discovering that each of them has been haunted by increasingly horrific nightmares for quite some time. They agree to investigate the apparent meaning of their very different nightmares, only to find themselves together in a single jointly-shared dream world, where they meet their so-called Spirit Guide.While investigating their own dreams, they discover that a similar series of events occurred 40 years earlier. At the earlier event a teacher was involved, who was diligent enough to keep accurate records. While looking through the various papers and artifacts once belonging to the teacher, one of the students suddenly becomes comatose. He reawakens about 15 minutes later, but while he was "out" he was an invisible witness to many years of Mayan and Toltec history, from the time their Spirit Guide was a young boy until his death. His experience helped the students put many loose ends together.This story is well told, both the contemporary portion and the historical portion. Although obviously fiction, it's not hard to imagine this as a non-fictional account of some very supernatural events and circumstances. It is beyond my ability to adequately relate to you just how captivating and engaging this book is. All I can do is urge you to read it. Whether you are a fan of Fantasy, Science Fiction, Romance, War Stories, Horror, Paranormal, Mayan Culture, or just about any other genre, I believe you will be as fascinated as I was, from start to finish. This is really an excellent story.
