In case you haven’t seen it, here’s a synopsis of The Stream:
What if your world was six miles wide and endlessly long?
After a devastating storm kills his parents, five-year-old Wend awakens to the strange world of the Stream. He discovers he can only travel downstream, and dangers lurk at every turn: deadly rapids, ruthless pirates, a mysterious pavilion that lures him into intoxicating fantasies, and rumor of a giant waterfall at the edge of the world. Defenseless, alone, with only courage and his will to survive, Wend begins his quest to become a man. Will tragic loss trap him in a shadow world, or will he enter the Stream, with all its passion and peril?
Part coming-of-age tale, part adventure, part spiritual journey, The Stream is a fable about life, impermanence, and the gifts found in each moment.
“Masterful storytelling . . . Wend’s story is heart-breaking, joyous, desperate and exciting.” Reader’s Favorite Five Stars!
The Stream is available through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, iTunes, or your favorite online or brick-and-mortar bookstore.
