This review is by Frank LaVoie.
I was around since the inception of Dreamworld, Book 1 in Brian Wood’s The Chronicles of Trayvian James.
I’d like to take some credit, but I can’t. I’d like to say that I gave him this idea, or offered an inspiration for that character, but I didn’t.
What I did do was serve as a backboard for high school basketball coach Wood to bounce ideas off of. It was a fun process, listening to him conjure his world and dribbling through ideas as he created one of the best books I’ve read in a long time, a humorous and intriguing Young Adult Fantasy that makes me jealous that his ideas weren’t my ideas first.
