The Daydreamer

Peter Fortune is a daydreamer. He's a quiet ten year old who can't help himself from dropping out of reality and into the amazing world of his vivid imagination. His daydreams are fantastic and fascinating - only in the bizarre and disturbing world of dreams can he swap bodies with the family cat and his baby cousin, Kenneth, or wipe out his entire family with vanishing cream.

Reviews

Readers will find that it is almost impossible to put the book down once they have started reading it

—— Through the Looking Glass

Morden combines science fiction and fantasy in a novel with a cracking pace that pitches savagery and bigotry against reason

—— TES

A big book and a big read . . . Action-packed, the plot is revealed gradually, drawing the reader on, with good descriptions of a colourful world

—— The School Librarian

Highly recommended as a summer read for all sci-fi fans and might inspire the younger ones to ask deeper-probing questions

—— thebookbag.co.uk

There is no doubt that this novel is compelling. The various mysteries in the story combine to keep the reader turning the page and the world in which it is set is fascinating
