How much of our reality is only fantasy, and how much fantasy can become reality?

Set in Los Angeles in the 1980s. Our hero's life is changed after a near-death experience. Thane Winstrom is led on a journey of discovery when, during a nearly fatal accident, he glimpses the "other side," coming to learn that there is more to life than he realized, both on Earth and after death. Thane's experience causes him to dream every night, and Thane begins sensing and connecting to a natural energy coming from the Earth itself. This energy is personified in his recurring dreams when he discovers his dream alter-ego, an Arthurian heroic character named Sarghon, prophesied and destined to save his world from a dark and powerful tyrannical King. Surrounded by a sentient forest, mythical beasts, and new, magical friends, Sarghon (Thane's dream alter-ego) sets off on a fantastical adventure of discovery and power.

In the real world, Thane follows his instincts, leading him on a reckless mission driven by environmental passion, as he attempts to do all he can to save the planet from the failures of human negligence and pollution. He ends up trying to stop a nuclear test on the Tahitian atoll of Mururoa, sparking an adventure just as wild as in his dream world. Both worlds begin to weave back and forth, influencing each other in dramatic and unexpected ways, as each scenario plays out in this epic tale of fantasy, reality, dreams, and utter adventure!

• Bravery, Adventure, and Destiny are strong themes of this story -...as well as environmentalism, fantasy, and spirituality. Sarghon's advisor, Ambroas tells him: "You were chosen because you have bravery within you, my boy. Some are born with it, some learn it over time, and some have none at all. But bravery indeed is in your blood. It's a presence of strength within you that you don't know you already have."
• Thane believes humanity may be entering the next phase of evolution. "We are evolving!" Like The Force, in Star Wars, or the mutant powers portrayed in the world of X-Men, Thane believes he is beginning to see the first signs of our next step in human evolution. The Spirit King creates a dream world that often feels more like reality than real life.

*This story is not for small children. Although it's not as graphically adult-themed as Game of Thrones, it includes mature content. I hope to encourage people to think outside the box, beyond individual lives, toward a more consciously evolved, environmentally friendly vision of the world and its future. ENJOY and DREAM!!
