    About this ebook

    Angelina Marsh can find nothing in her life to inspire her. She cares little for her school work, and does not take any interest in the things most that girls her age do. Then she meets a strange-looking man in the town centre selling magazines to passers-by, and her perspective on life takes an unexpected turn.

    But can this man really be who he says he is, and if so, what does this mean for Angelina and the world she takes such a bleak view of? Only an open mind will allow her to find the answer.

    P J G Robbins

    I am a writer, runner, engineer and gamer. Not necessarily in that order. My love of writing has given me immeasurable enjoyment over the years and has yielded several books so far, most notably Dreamweavers: Awakening, a mind-warping adventure for all ages, and 824, which is an expression of my love of running. I'm currently working on a follow-up to DW:A and wish I had enough hours in the day to follow up all the other ideas I have for stories.

      The month after our mother died, our father began bringing women home. It felt like a behind-her-back kind of operation. “I’m going to have a guest over tonight,” is what he would say. David and I stayed out in the living room, turned up cartoons, bu
