In the thrilling conclusion of the City of Nightmares duology, Ness must confront her deepest fears to survive in Cage of Dreams.
In Cage of Dreams, chaos envelops the City of Newham as the gripping conclusion of the City of Nightmares duology unfolds. Nineteen-year-old Ness, once paralyzed by fear of Nightmares—individuals who transform into their deepest terrors during sleep—has faced numerous challenges, including assassination attempts and a deal with a demon. Having confronted her fears, she embarks on a new journey, seeking to conquer not just Nightmares but the very essence of mortality itself.
As she navigates the treacherous landscape of Newham, Ness learns that danger lurks beyond the Nightmares. The stakes rise when the creature responsible for manifesting these terrors offers her a deal: in exchange for a favor, she can become an indestructible Nightmare of her choosing. Driven by the desire for safety, she agrees, unaware of the chaos that will ensue. The path she chooses leads her into a web of conflict with both familiar foes and new adversaries.
In this tumultuous environment, Ness realizes that survival hinges on facing her greatest adversary—herself. The narrative explores themes of identity, fear, and the struggle for inner strength, culminating in a powerful confrontation that will determine her fate. Cage of Dreams is a compelling tale of resilience and self-discovery amidst a backdrop of fantastical peril.
