"“Fedan has managed to write a novel that is mesmerizing; part love story, part historical novel, part spiritual text, "Dream Maker" is one hell of a read. It is historically accurate, without the feel of an historical novel. Instead, it reads like an adult fairy tale of sorts that never fails to charm and entrance. After reading "Dream Maker" I've been taking a look at the world around me with different eyes, a different sense of being. I for one am thankful for it. You will be too if you pick up this engrossing, magical book.” Jamieson Wolf, LINEARREFLECTIONS.COM “While history buffs will enjoy this novel –especially those interested in military and Arthurian lore- I was more intrigued by the portrayal of metaphysical disciplines such as ‘agape’...This novel is a well-written addition to the genre of mystical fiction…you’ll likely develop new ways of looking at your life, the world and other people…” JANETBOYER.COM “Dream Maker, a pleasant surprise…weaves esoteric and spiritual concepts that I found refreshing…the intricacies of karma. In fact, the story moves along so well, I kind of hoped it would have gone on longer.” REVERSESPINS.COM “An invigorating story and a
gift that opens one’s mind…” MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW

Book
Description "Past Life Transforms the Present!""Martin started back up the road where he had left the group. He savored the peace he still carried from the Kahuna. For him to exude such peace, he must have heaven inside. He wondered how a person got to be like that." Martin's depression couldn't get much worse with work and marital problems ballooning on a daily basis, but he's smart enough to realize he needs help. After seeking the same through socially acceptable channels, he turns to a friend (Mojo) he accidentally made, a friend who exudes peace that literally resonates through Martin's physical body as well as emotions. He proceeds, through another peaceful acquaintance and clearly a guide just for him, to make a journey that will change the rest of his life, one in which he will face his own demons, demons shared in many similar human "patterns". The story would be boring and predictable were it not for the interesting element that Grigor Fedan, the author, weaves through the tale. Martin meets several other mystical characters who allow him to return to the time of the Romans, a time where he meets himself in a former identity. Warned to observe only what is happening and not to get involved, he proceeds to learn how to cope with the terrible cruelty and confusion emerging from humans who "react" out of emotions or faulty reason rather than from their true Spirit- or God-filled state. He is assisted by some characters who clearly must be King Arthur and Merlin, as well as those who lived in that momentous time that provided an opportunity for the world to live in a different manner. Because Martin learns so well, he is able to help others there and eventually will return to his contemporary life having tools to shape the world around him in its natural state. It's a familiar premise but one that is not very well understood or practiced in this world of war and negativity. It bears not only reading but also reflective focus for both ourselves and our children. Some have stated that the book proposes that humanity can do it all by one's self. This represents a clear misreading of the story and says more about the reader than what the author has so clearly depicted and what has the potential for so clearly inspiring and changing what is so obviously dysfunctional anywhere in our contemporary world. Well done, G. Fedan! Reviewed by Viviane Crystal
