Synopsis
'There are always rules . . . I am the Dream Master. Not you. What I say goes. And I say this dream is gone, so beat it.' There are good dreams and there are rotten dreams, but once they're over, they're over. Or are they? For one morning, as Cy is about to wake up from a terrific dream about Ancient Egypt, he discovers that he can get back into his dream world. There's just one problem: the Dream Master, who isn't used to stroppy boys standing up to him and wanting to break all the rules. And as Cy moves back and forth between the present day and the land of the pharaohs - sorting out all kinds of problems with schoolwork and bullies - dream life and real life become ingeniously intertwined!

From AudioFile
This tale concerns the adventures of a young man from London named Cy who rather enjoys his dreams. One morning he dreams of ancient Egypt and finds himself IN his dream, a situation which does not at all please the one who controls all dreams--the Dream Master. Cy and the Master go back and forth between the dream world and the real world, even bringing in a young Egyptian prince named Aten. This imaginative and delightful tale is given a splendid reading by Norgate. A former member of the Royal Shakespeare Company, as well as a veteran actor, he has a resonant voice that is versatile and expressive. The impatience and gruff sagacity of the Dream Master, the quiet awe and wonder of Aten in London, and the adolescent impishness and naïveté of Cy are all conveyed with equal aplomb. M.T.F.
