* Please avoid spoilers!


My Teaser:

I don't know if it was the home-brewed beer Fred had given me when I passed by his room, or if it was the comments Bobo and Peter Santilli had made about Luca before I left the other hotel, but I dropped off around midnight like a ton of rocks and fell into one of the most beautiful deep sleeps I can ever remember.
I started having these incredible dreams--dreams that were crisp, vivid, and radiant, different in size and color from my normal dreams, like the difference between watching a movie on a television set versus a large screen at the theater.

    I'm almost afraid now - that I'll have those huge, vivid dreams. Very 'real' imagery in this quote. Great teaser!

    And they say that you don't dream because of what you ate before bedtime. Ha! That's certainly not true in this book, is it? Great teaser!

    That's a great teaser. I'm kind of like Jackie, it wasn't what I was expecting from the title of the book.

    I'm trying this again, we were having high winds yesterday and my power started blinking on and off. Figured it was time to shut down the computer.

    Great teaser, very descriptive, but I'm not sure if I could handle a whole book like that.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
