  This Love Story Is Haunting

  07/09/2010

  I digested The Hambledown Dream in two nights, so powerful and moving it was. I simply could not put it down. As the title suggests, it has a dream like quality to it and the story draws you in, holds you in it's grasp and will not let go.
  
  The love story is unique, the journey of it's protagonists are absorbing and very real despite the paranormal edge to the novel.
  
  The story begins in Australia with a brilliant young man - a guitarist - with the world before him but who is struck down by a terminal illness and is destined to die. On the other side of the world, another young man - a troubled soul - very nearly ends his own life through a reckless act. In the aftermath he is salvaged and begins to dream of another life. Something has happened to him and we are taken on a journey to find out.
  
  The description of music was quite stunning and very skillful and it really puts the reader into the middle of the songs - even if you haven't heard them before.
  
  The Hambledown Dream haunted me long after I put it down and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
