WOW-WOHOW! where i have been all htis time that this aMAZing book has been sitting on my shelves?!?! and there are two more books in the trilogy that have been in print since 2007! this is Triskellion 1 & 2 on steroids, and takes fantazy and science fiction and rolls them up beautifully into one uber-genre. how many other books are out there giving an interplanetary spin on all our ancient myths of magic and mystery?! i want to read them.

I picked it up not knowing it would be more of a early teen kinda book and it got boring. The premise is cool though, it would definitely be a nice book for someone like 12. It was my fault.

I like the concept of the story but I think it was not written well and was hard to follow at times

A beautifully written and compelling mixture of fantasy and science fiction, I couldn't put this down. I found it a refreshingly novel storyline after having read so much formulaic fantasy and can't wait to read the rest of the trilogy.

I really enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the rest in the trilogy. A boy has the ability to travel to different worlds through his dreams and he discovers a dying planet named Eos. Because of corruption, magic got out of hand and poisoned the planet and (I believe) others as well. So it's up to Nathan to find 3 objects - a grail, a sword, and a crown - so that a Great Spell can be performed, healing the planet.
It was a fun story and I loved the Eos parts!

Considering the copy was a nondescript ARC picked up at a used book sale, I think this was a lucky find.

The first in a trilogy featuring a young boy whose dreams are far too real--because they ARE real. He learns in his dreams about a dying world and then he must find the grail to begin the healing process. In the next two books (which I have not read), Nathan must find the crown and sword so that the spell of healing can be complete.
This story has all the flavor of Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising series. I enjoyed the characters and the setting but found the plot moved a little too slowly at times.
