DreamWalker
It's not insider trading if your stock tips are from dreams. During the DreamWalker project, Sam walked into comatose dreams and death experiences of fallen soldiers all over the world. He got their secrets out before they finished dying. Sam never should have started DreamWalking again. He told the shrink about his three weeks of bloody nightmares. He didn't tell him they were about dying as his hot busty blonde gaming avatar. And he sure as hell couldn't tell him last night some red headed dream girl elf just gave him his first and only, mind blowing, body thrashing, sheet clutching, female orgasm.
DreamWalking is as intense as waking life. In his dream, Sam appears in Sheela's hot busty blonde body in the on line video game. She’s looking for the same elf she met last night. She hopes against hope the elf is a real person, not just some vivid fantasy from a cruel dream.
“What's yer poison?” The bartender is smiling, a little. Strictly business.
As Sam answers, she hears a sultry, seductive voice behind her answering at the same time. “Walker, straight up”.
The elf looks Sam up and down, making Sam blush as she stares at her. The elf's soft voice is like velvet song. “Nothin like the taste of a good Walker, right?”

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat the world needs now...

The theme of this book is expressed in the lyrics by Jackie DeShannon:
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone.
"No matter what part of the world we come from, we are all basically the same human beings. We all seek happiness and try to avoid suffering." This is a quote by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet given at his acceptance speech for the Nobel Peace Prize. I have always tried to live according to these words. Reading Jessica Mandella's book has, for me, given these words new meaning.
Polyamory in its most basic form, it is defined as honest consensual non-monogamy. The author introduces this subject in a sympathetic way with a woman trapped in a man's body (Sam/Samantha) who falls in love with a female elf named Ilira. They, along with another male, female and a computer join forces to fight Cruella and her evil army. The result is a loving five-way family.
Discrimination, especially toward the LGBTQ community, is the result of fear of the unknown, of others who are different from us. Knowledge and education teach that our similarities outweigh our differences. We are all basically the same human beings.
I was immediately impressed by the author's writing. Her words are positive, powerful and triumphant. They are also gentle and mesmerizing as she recounts the story of her characters; their choices, consequences, battles fought and won. I cheered for Sam/Samantha as he/she jumped hurdle after hurdle that was thrown in front of him/her. That he/she and the other members of their intimate family came out winners is due to love and resolution. This is a very inspiring book, one I recommend to everyone with a heart.

Mind-blowing twists and turns that almost gave me whiplash. I didn’t know what to expect around corner after corner, on ‘penrose’ stairs! Great tie-ins keep this almost paradoxical story interesting and explained. Reading Dream Walker, by Jessica Mandela, sent me out of my comfort zone, into multiple universes and endless dream possibilities. Some where funny, most were shocking, sexy—HOT! The author is highly creative and kept the surprises rolling at breakneck speeds. This was a very fast-paced and unpredictable novel. Just imagine…everything that can be, not only in one single universe, but many, including dream realms and separate realities, and future technology beyond what is currently fathomable for humans.
I chose Dream Walker because I have always enjoyed the studies of dreams, sleep, and lucid dreaming; when I say always, I mean from the earliest age I can recall. And this novel didn’t disappoint. Stories that possess elements that spurt me to thinking, make me angle my head and smile. Clever, yes, this author is very. I also chose this novel because I wanted to read stories that would blast me out of my comfort zone. My last novel was a western (guilty, I’m a sci-fi nerd foremost) and now some, yes—erotica. Mixed with lucid dreaming, amazing capabilities and potential.
Even time travel! But not in any way you will ever guess! Go back and make changes, sure—but think NOT directly when approaching Jessica’s talent for writing. Clever, original, colorful and SMOKIN’, was the author’s power for description, with a style of writing I’ve yet to encounter—and I read a lot. The author’s erotic prose had me blushing, tomato-faced, to all-out kablooey. Multiple hot and steamy scenes set my brain on fire time after time. Comfort zone, obliterated.

The best Classic SciFi on steroids, viagra, rabbit toy and medical grade imagination.
What Heinlein started, Jessica Mandella carries on, with a hot new twist. Don't have to choose between mind blowing SciFi, sizzling hot sex, powerful emotional romance and crazy action. It's all there. No flavor is any less for the presence of the others. It qualifies simultaneously as great SciFi, awesome erotica, heartwarming romance and a wild ride of a thriller. If you want this book to fulfill any one of those choices, it does it and then some. The fact that it does it all at once makes it truly great. The writing is so good, in twenty years when society gets their heads out of their butts, this book will be the only novel assigned in English class that all the students will read... without putting it down!

Over the top. It's the one phrase that kept recurring to me while reading Jessica Mandella's Dreamwalker. It's meant as a compliment, though, since the plot is mainly about the elevation of the consciousnesses of the characters, as they develop psychic powers to greater and greater heights, with each new chapter pushing them over the threshold that you already thought was crazy the chapter before, until they're literally reaching the heavens. In between are a lot of sex scenes focused on demonstrating the impact of empathic powers being used to experience your partner's pleasure in a feedback loop with your own.
I won't try to summarize the plot setup, Jessica's blurb does that well enough. Just buckle yourself in, because it's a wild, wild ride from there. One you're unlikely to ever forget.

Jessica Mandella quite obviously operates on a different wavelength to the majority of people. The plot and storytelling were first-rate. I don't think I've enjoyed a sci-fi book like this for a long time.
The ingenious plot weaved in and out of time-warps and body-swaps and it made me want to experience everything, which today is just a fantasy for most of us, but I honestly believe Jessica must have experience in these quantum universes the way she describes everything.
I loved this book even though it's not a genre I usually read, but I am going to read more by Jessica, my heroin.

Thoroughly enjoyed this engaging and thought provoking book. The concepts within the book require concentration so its not an easy beach/holiday read but is totally absorbing. Reminds me of Stephen King books with the concepts....some of the scenes are the most sensually erotic scenes I have read within being explicit. Good read, well recommended!!
