Introduction

For Fans of Kafka, Rushdie, and Coelho. Seduction of a Wanton Dreamer is a mythic tale that blends humor with a serious exploration of our place in the multiverse.

When an ancient Celtic god, Lugh of the Long Hand, decides to recapture his earthly power, he targets an unsuspecting New Yorker, Tony Fellows, as his contemporary messiah. By infiltrating Tony's dreams, orchestrating a series of personal crises, and steering him into a barrage of sexual and spiritual awakenings, Lugh succeeds in disarming Tony's once-solid grip on reality.

Tony's journey takes him through the cracks between time and space, eventually landing him in a parallel universe inhabited by the ghosts of his ancestors and the mythical creatures of the Collective Unconscious.
