About the book

\"Remarkable, riveting, disorienting and dark.\" —Madeleine Roux, New York Times bestselling author of the Asylum series

A Nightmare on Elm Street meets Inception in this gripping psychological thriller from international bestselling author Amy Plum. Seven teenagers who suffer from debilitating insomnia agree to take part in an experimental new procedure to cure it because they think it can’t get any worse. But they couldn’t be more wrong.

When the lab equipment malfunctions, the patients are plunged into a terrifying dreamworld where their worst nightmares have come to life—and they have no memory of how they got there. Hunted by monsters from their darkest imaginations and tormented by secrets they’d rather keep buried, these seven strangers will be forced to band together to face their biggest fears. And if they can’t find a way to defeat their dreams, they will never wake up.

Dreamfall is perfect for fans of dark and edgy young adult novels from authors like Danielle Vega, Natasha Preston, Kendare Blake, and Madeleine Roux. It is the first book in a spine-tingling duology full of action, suspense, and horror that's sure to keep readers on the edge of their seat until the very last page.


In this world, there is no waking up. Only survival.


  • Shared Dreaming: Seven strangers are trapped inside a single, terrifying nightmare. To escape, they must learn to trust each other, but in a world built from fear, anyone can be the enemy.
  • Nightmares Come to Life: From skinless monsters to ravenous clowns, every secret fear is made real and lethal. The only way out is through the darkest corners of their own minds.
  • Found Family in Peril: With no memory of how they got there and the rules changing with every nightmare, these strangers must band together to stay alive in a deadly game where there are no second chances.
  • Mind-Bending Twists: A high-tech lab, a catastrophic malfunction, and a chilling secret that connects them all. Nothing is what it seems in this thriller where reality itself is the enemy.
