r_j_setser's review against another edition
4.0
In a world of persistent surveillance, the only place for privacy is in one’s dreams. So how do you start an uprising in this world? You contact them in their dreams.
Dream of the Navigator has quite an interesting premise. I was intrigued by the story-world and plot alike when I started reading, and it immediately reminded me of Ready Player One, with a few differences of course. The main difference being the fantasy element included in the story, which I enjoyed.
There are lots of characters and I liked getting to know them. They all came from different backgrounds of the story and it was fun to anticipate them all eventually coming together. However, because there were so many main characters (4 who told the story in their point of view), it seemed to take a while to build up. Also, the same stories and explanations were told to each of the characters at different times so it felt really repetitive.
The world is beautifully explained though. It played through my mind as if I were watching a movie and once the story picked up, it was hard to put the book down. So even though it has a slow beginning, it was still worth picking up. Plus it’s clean, no cursing or sexual content in this one, so that was a bonus!
Overall, I give it 4 out of 5 stars and patiently await the next book!
I received this book from the author via TCM Tours for the purpose of this review. All comments and opinions are entirely my own.
