Fans of the blockbuster film Inception will love this week’s Free Fridays selection: Dark Legacy.
Anna DeStefano’s complex novel relies on a similar framework of dream theory and questions of identity that made Inception such an irresistible film. In Dark Legacy, sisters Maddie and Sarah share a unique psychic gift that puts them at great danger from a covert government agency called Trinity. The agency has kept the sisters apart for ten years, intent on harnessing their shared powers. But when their dual-consciousness is restored, the sisters find that there’s a new, dangerous element that wasn’t there before. DeStefano’s novel is an insightful psychological thriller of the first order.
You can continue the adventures of these powerfully gifted sisters in the just-released sequel, Secret Legacy.
Free Fridays Recommends
This week, we’re introducing a new element to Free Fridays. Each Friday, we’ll ask our featured author to recommend a book or author that you may want to check out. Since authors are such passionate readers themselves, we thought you might like to find out what they love to read, too! Here’s what Anna DeStefano recommends:
“I'm obsessed with Michio Kaku at the moment, while I research the fringe science behind the metaphysics and parapsychology in my psychic fantasies. I highly recommend all of Kaku's backlist, starting with Physics of the Impossible. I just bought his Physics of the Future, too, and am halfway through Parallel Worlds. Amazing stuff you want to believe can be real now!
For readers who want more dream theory in their fiction (and psychic phenomenon), I just finished Jacquelyn Frank's Seduce Me in Dreams. It's a hot, sexy romance, while Secret Legacy (and Dark Legacy) are more psychic thrillers and sci-fi/fantasy. But you'll love her world building and characters. She draws you in from the first page. And I totally bought how she wove shared dreaming into her plot and characters' realities.”
