The Music Edition edition of this audiobook comes enhanced with the occasional and subtle use of a soundtrack specifically composed for this novel by German film composer Marvin Kopp. For the non-music edition, please buy the Standard Edition instead.

Years after a harrowing war experience, ex-mercenary Jespar tre Moreste has taken to drifting. It's a lonely existence, but barring the occasional bout of melancholia, he has found the closest thing to peace a man like him deserves. Life is "all right."

â??Or so he believes. Hoping to turn the page, Jespar accepts a mysterious invitation into the beautiful but dangerous archipelago of Kilayâ??and everything changes. Plagued by boiling social tensions and terrorism, the tropical empire is edging ever closer to civil war. Kilay's merchant king is the only person able to prevent this catastrophe, but he has fallen into a preternatural comaâ??and it's Jespar's task to figure out what or who caused it. As the investigation takes him across the archipelago and into the king's nightmares, unexpected events not only tie Jespar's own life to the mystery but also unearth inner demons he believed to be exorcised long ago.

â??Battling old trauma while fighting for his life, his sanity, and the fate of Kilay, the line between dream and reality blurs until only one question remains: If your mind is the enemy, where do you run?

A slow-burning, riveting blend of fantasy, mystery, and psychological horror, Dreams of the Dying is a deep exploration of mental illness, morality, and the dark sides of hu… (más)

This wasn't bad, it was just too long and repetitive. At about 400 pages I feel like I would have liked it a lot more. I liked the characters, I liked the plot, but the "restrictions" on the main character got to be a little boring after a while, I really thought they were something else and the end result was that they weren't as exciting as I thought they were going to be (trying not to include spoilers here).

I like the philosophical discussions, I liked that even though one of the main characters was bi-sexual, it didn't feel forced or included for inclusiveness sake. There were some uses of modern language like "anywho" and "true that" that kind of took me out of the story, but those were towards the beginning of the book and didn't come up again.

Would definitely try another, much shorter, novel from Mr. Lietzau in the future. ( )
