Product Description

Product Description
Cy is about to wake up from a terrific dream about the Ancient Egypt, but finds that he can re-enter his dream world. But the Dream Master isn't used to boys who want to break all the rules. Cy moves back and forth in time and finds that dream life and real life become ingeniously intertwined. Tied in with National Curriculum.

From the Back Cover
'We're in trouble,' said the Dream Master. 'Twenty Types of Trouble - Double Mixed!'

Every dream needs a master - someone in charge, just like someone telling a story. But when Cy has a go at being a Dream Master himself and running his own dream, everything goes horribly wrong. Suddenly Viking invaders are burning down a villiage, chasing after him with huge axes - and a bossy Saxon princess says he is a swineherd! That's not how his dream was supposed to go. It's out of control!

Only Cy can sort it out. It's his dream, his story. And if he fails, even the proper Dream Master won't be able to stop the bloodthirsty barbarians in his dream from bursting through into Cy's real life. . .

Switch from now to then and back again in this hilarious and imaginative tale from award-winning author Theresa Breslin. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars There are good dreams and there are bad dreams by Robert Bul, 9 Sep 2001
By A Customer
The start is about a boy my age having dreams but there is one thing, when he has good dreams they end too early and when he has bad dreams they end too late. But the night when he had a dream about Ancient Egypt that was all going to change. Cy was in that dream. It was about him riding on a horse to save his friend Aten but then just when he was going to save his friend the sand started to sink, the horse galloped faster and cy missed Atens hand and rode away. Then he fell off his horse and the dream started to fade away then he pulled something out then it was gone. The thing that he pulled out was a boy called Aten and he has accidentally pulled him into the real world. I like this book because it is funny and exciting, thrilling and entertaining. It is funny because Cys mum looks after exchange students and Aten has to go to school and makes some mistakes. It is exciting because Aten takes part in the class play but still gets things wrong. It is also exciting because some chapters end at cliffhangers. It is thrilling because when I need to stop reading I want to keep on reading like the time they were trapped between 2 crocodiles. It is entertaining and once you start reading you want to read more books by the same author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 1 Jul 2000
By A Customer
Cy wakes up one morning in a bit of a mood as he didn't finish what he was meant to do in his Egyptian dream - rescue an Egyptian boy thats about to be executed. Suddenly he is whooshed back into his dream eventhough he's still asleep. A great character is the Dream Master he is extremely bossy yet funny. The actual story is frustrating when the dream world clashes with reality and it's up to the main chaacter Cy to get Atun a dream world character back into the dream. I enjoyed this book because i like fantasy and believe me this is fantasy! The beginning is a bit hard to understand but keep reading because this book is GREAT!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent sequel to the The Dream Master, 24 May 2000
By A Customer
This book is great. It is all about a boy who tries to control his own dream and the 'dream master', who is usually in charge of people's dreams tries to fix the situation. CY falls in and out of his own dream and has lots of adventures on the way and meets lots of characters from the Viking era.I thought this was a really cool idea and it was a brilliant story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fine entertainment
What I loved about this book was its total lack of earnestness. The Ancient Egyptian theme is milked for its entertainment value and not, thank God, for its relevance to KS2... Read more
