This tale concerns the adventures of a young man from London named Cy who rather enjoys his dreams. One morning he dreams of ancient Egypt and finds himself IN his dream, a situation which does not at all please the one who controls all dreams--the Dream Master. Cy and the Master go back and forth between the dream world and the real world, even bringing in a young Egyptian prince named Aten. This imaginative and delightful tale is given a splendid reading by Norgate. A former member of the Royal Shakespeare Company, as well as a veteran actor, he has a resonant voice that is versatile and expressive. The impatience and gruff sagacity of the Dream Master, the quiet awe and wonder of Aten in London, and the adolescent impishness and naïveté of Cy are all conveyed with equal aplomb. M.T.F.
