Throwback Thursday #89 - Between


This is a great feature that Melissa at My World...in words and pictures has been doing for a while which looks at those wonderful books that are ALREADY on my shelves that we haven't got round to reading yet...

Between - Kerry Schafer
Publisher: Ace Fantasy
Vivian Maylor can’t sleep. Maybe it’s because she just broke up with her boyfriend and moved to a new town, or it could be the stress of her new job at the hospital. But perhaps it’s because her dreams have started to bleed through into her waking hours.
All of her life Vivian has rejected her mother’s insane ramblings about Dreamworlds for concrete science and fact, until an emergency room patient ranting about dragons spontaneously combusts before her eyes—forcing Viv to consider the idea that her visions of mythical beasts might be real.
And when a chance encounter leads her to a man she knows only from her dreams, Vivian finds herself falling into a world that seems strange and familiar all at once—a world where the line between dream and reality is hard to determine, and hard to control...

I bought this based solely on the cover and the the blurb (tough looking girl holding a dragon in a sphere...yes, please!). However, I've not read many reviews of it so I don't know what to expect but I still want to read it! Com'on people - dragons in spheres and dreams - how have I not read this yet...?

Have you ever bought a book from an unknown author solely on the cover...?
