When a fairy king grants a human wish, there's more at stake than dreams.
Claire Delaney has a good life, despite her adolescent angst. But she wants more. In a moment of frustration, she wishes to be "the hero."
What she actually wants is to be the center of attention, but what she gets is a terrifying Fae king demanding that she rescue an imprisoned fairy, facing fantastical dangers and hardships she could not have imagined.
Yet the dreams - and the rescue - are only the beginning of her journey. She is at the center of the king's audacious gamble to end the war that has raged in Faerie for half a century.

C.J. Brightly creatively weaves a tale of intrigue and magic while we share in the growth of the girl and of the Seelie King and the evolution of their relationship. This tale is far from what I consider romance even though there are components of the main characters getting to know more of each other. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn’t stop listening.
Connie Shor did a fantastic job of narrating this story. Characters were given diverse voices and accents. It was easy to recognize the characters from the voices given. Even voices of other genders were well done. If you are looking for an enjoyable read and joining humans as they visit Faerie is something you enjoy, I would strongly recommend this tale. I was given this audiobook, by the author, with no requests asked. However, I enjoyed it so much I was compelled to leave this review.

I loved the story's dream like quality. it was both whimsical and dangerous. Even with the unpredictable environment the plot was still pretty easy to follow.
The narrator of this novel really brought her best to it. She has a great range of voices that she pulls out for all the different fairy creatures. Her reading is also clear, distinct and emotive.
All around, an entertaining experience for fans of Him Henson's Labrynth.
Dreams are the reality.

The story follows young Claire from a child to an adult as she stumbles and weaves her way through the land of Fairy, where one childhood wish to be a hero was capitalized on by the Seelie King. Rescuing a fairy is no easy task amidst the trials abounding at every turn. Nor when grappling with dream ventures, riddles and human error, while spans of time grow forgotten. Yet in a captivating tale of dreams, Brightley paints a novel where time and place is of no consequence, and every character in the Fairy realm is as foreign and captivating as they are dangerous. Impossible to ignore and quaint enough to feel transported to another world, the novel would be well loved by fans of Alice in Wonderland, or Inkheart.
The narrator, Corinne Shor has a lovely charm with character accents and genders, creating a unique voice for each that remained pleasantly consistent throughout the story. Though at time the narration is slightly jumbled or confusing, that is the nature of the story itself; Where dreams seldom act as reality.
In whole, it is a delightfully unique and colorful tale with a relatable main character and enough mystic, hidden lore to pique even the most tentative of curiosities within the realm of the Lord of Dreams.

If you enjoy a mingling of dreams and reality and exploring a unique vision of the Faerie world, I would highly recommend The Lord of Dreams! I also highly recommend the audiobook - the narrator had a wonderfully soothing voice and did a great job bringing the characters to life with different voices and accents.

Clare is a young girl who dreams about faerie, and about being a hero. One day an Elven King shows up in her dreams and invites her on an adventure. The Elven King's description fits David Bowie's Jared to the letter, really! Clare must release an Elven boy from a prison in the castle. After this adventure she wakes up.
Years later she finds herself back in Faerie this time having to rescue the Elven King himself.
Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this; the narrator's voice was lovely.
