The Gorillas Are Coming

Eight-year-old Samuel Redden is having terrible nightmares. They're of killer gorillas, who walk upright like men, display vampire-like teeth, and brandish unnatural long claws at their fingertips. As children go, this might not seem like a unique phenomenon. He can probably ask all his classmates in his third-grade class and find similar nighttime experiences. Except for one thing. Samuel's nightmares are real. The gorillas are breaking through from the nightmare world to ours, with only a kid's defenses to hold them back. The light helps, and his big brother is an often savior, but these are powerful forces. He needs to seek help and fast. His friend Peter has some ideas, but will it work? Perhaps.

But the gorillas and the realm they serve aren't easy to banish. They follow Samuel to his 43rd year on the earth with more strength, festering rage, and a newly formed ape leader to subjugate our world. But Samuel is no longer a defenseless child and learns that he has special abilities. Can he discover the origin of these powers in time to prevent the nightmares from devouring all he holds dear? He gathers a team of loved ones and experts to prepare for the fight of his life. Is Samuel truly the Golden Child, able to defeat the horrors of the dreamscape, or is he just a damaged, terrified soul, ready to dive under the covers and cower again?

Get lost in Mark Bermingham's riveting supernatural novel that explores the dimensions of dreams and nightmares. A new world of possibilities and imagination awaits you as you wish you could just stay awake. Because no matter what you do, no matter how hard you fight...
