They call it the Taking. Alora Thyme calls it theft-of her family, her mind, and her life. After two years of struggling to find balance, Alora is pulled into Yumenoshima. A world where dreams live, memories fade, and nothing is as it seems. With a strange power stirring within her, and an enemy who wears familiar faces, Alora must choose: surrender to her scars, or wield them as her greatest strength. Alora must rise above her fears; otherwise, the world may never wake up.
