The Dreamist

Book Cover & Preview Text
Once the show began to train its own dreamers, it was all different. Shortly there after they went the whole distance. Dreamist founded its own school, Integrating Astral Matrix University. They offer any number of degrees including Doctorate of Multidimensional Dreaming. People go to school for 8 years just to be able to apply, to be on this show.
Not all who apply are accepted. It’s really more in the neighborhood of one ninth of one percent of the entire enrollment of the school that ever gets to see the stage from the contestant’s point of view.
The audition, or finals as the students call them, stretch over a year. Even then, once you have qualified, you just get on the list and may wait years before getting your chance to actually be on the show. Still thousands line up.
The Dream Dome was built to accommodate, exclusively, this show. There are a quarter million seats surrounding an enormous circular stage. This is small by current population standards. The platform is inlaid with a holomatrix grid. It’s in the form of a circle, divided into six equal pieces, each called a petal. Around it are six sleep chambers, called IG-wooms with the contestant already bedded down within, asleep, before the show goes on the air.
Each sleep chamber has a team of twenty-one highly qualified technicians, doctors, a personal coach and two officials who monitor the whole operation and of course, its sleeping contestant. This team has the authority to yank a player, if they feel the person could be hurt.
They are wired into the most sophisticated holographic projection system known to man. Their dreams will be projected onto the stage, in truly vivid colors and certainly larger than life.
There have been thirty-three deaths, and one hundred and sixty-four people permanently, mentally disabled, in the history of the Dreamist. One hundred and thirty nine of the disabled never again awoke, and were therefore eventually disqualified. Twenty-five never again went to sleep, but technically are conscious or at least semi-conscious. It’s something like coma-lite.

About the Book
Dreamist is a Future Novel.
At the turn of this century, the greatest game show that has ever been created is about to step into a whole new dimension. The story follows the life of Kabel Newstarr, from the heights of delight that the show bestows on a person, to the depths of a hellish war that is being waged against the contestants and the future of our planet.
No one suspects the true architect busy at work. Instead they are sleep in their isolation chambers projecting their dreaming bodies and preparing to do battle. The true bonds of brothers and sisters in war are forged as the game gains momentum into its next level. It seems like the show is over but this is just the beginning. Things get much more serious much more rapidly. It looks as though all will be lost and humanity will de-evolve and remain enslaved. When help arrives from an unforeseen unexpected source.
It goes where no Sci-Fi has ever gone.
The author himself says, “I’m not going to pitch you a lot of hype. This is a fun story that will pull you right through it. You will be a better, more enlightened person and a much greater dreamer at the end. My gratitude for reading.”
“Dreamist takes off where the movie Inception ended.”
This book is a dream journal from the future. Read it before you fall asleep.
About the Author
R. Neville Johnston has had a very interesting life experiencing. Just after graduating college, he was leaving a theatre in Manhattan, when a mugger shot him three times. The bullet that hit him in the head killed him instantly. He journeyed to the other side to meet with angels and be given some remarkable abilities. It all started with his being able to see people in their past lives. To this day he still takes people on the journey through their previous incarnations. Eventually he began to look into peoples futures as well as other dimensional realities. This was almost forty years ago.
Currently he is looking into the future of our planet and writing, "novels" about what he sees there. He is quoted as saying, “ Our future, the future of mankind does not end in any disaster. Instead there is a freeing from the slaveries that we ourselves create. We raise generation after generation of people who have out grown war, brutality and lack itself. We are all doing our part toward this end. Humanity opens unto the greatest Golden Age our world has ever known.”
