Voyage of the Dreamgatherer

Please be careful. This is not what you ‎think; and it will do things that you will not ‎expect. It is not for ‘the man in the street’; it is ‎only for people who can see beyond themselves ‎and who can interpret signs from beyond the wall ‎of dreams. If the words ‘I’ and ‘me’ are a regular ‎part of your vocabulary this book has nothing for ‎you.‎ If, however, your reach is longer than ‎most; if your eyes see the bright lights within the ‎shadows; if you see the stars during daylight ‎under the wrath of a great storm; then this book ‎might open its secrets to you. Because then it is ‎not opening its secrets to you; but to that which ‎resides, dormant and watchful, in the deep places ‎where men do not tread. This book is not ‎addressed to you the reader; it is addressed to He ‎who would walk the decks of the High Ship ‎Dreamgatherer.‎ There are a number of things you can do ‎to get in touch with the Sailor on the Ocean of ‎Dreams; things that will hold you in good stead as ‎you chart the secret waters within your mind; as ‎you ply the secret paths of that black forest from ‎where your nightmares come. You can prepare ‎your mind; within limits; for the dangerous lore ‎within these covers by beginning your search ‎elsewhere for the outriders of this hideous path. ‎There are many books available that hint; briefly ‎and with reticence, about the arcana contained ‎within this erudite tome; lore that can only be ‎unlocked if you have already come across this ‎hidden power. For knowledge breeds dark, occult ‎knowledge; understanding enlightens deeper ‎understanding; and truth exposes covert truth.‎
