The Gate of the Dream

About this book

In the muted corridors of a school, Faris is caught between his love of words, Maria's unreadable gaze, and a secret he has written but never dared to confess. When the folded page is taken, an impossible breach opens and pulls them into a fractured realm where shadows remember and light conceals its own secrets. Survival in this world depends on unfamiliar rules. Dreams carry a curse, digital clocks become instruments of endurance, and the Wardens of Darkness close in as Maria uncovers the truth of her forgotten origins. Faris must confront an even harsher possibility: sealing the passage may demand the one thing he cannot surrender without losing himself. Blending dark fantasy with emotional tension, The Gate of the Dream explores isolation, sacrifice, and the fragile humanity its characters struggle to preserve. It asks whether love can survive a world that consumes memory and spirit—and whether a few written words can still offer a way home.
