Description

Nola and Tina are both girls with problems. They don't know each other yet, though they will; each is a Creator, with the magical ability to turn dreams into reality. That would be a powerful gift--if either knew that she had it. And this world is hard on dreamers.

That's a tragedy no matter who it happens show more to. But when the great dreamers stop dreaming, whole universes of imagination can be lost. And the land of Nola and Tina's dreams is fighting back.

Following after him comes Prince Michael, whose quest it is to find the human dreamers who can save his land from ruin.
