After reading your fantastic review and the sample on Amazon, I will be adding this book to my shelf to read. Sounds interesting and I am wondering what heroic act Raif performed. The book cover also has me intrigued.

"One Last Summer" by Christophe Craig is a poignant and emotional novel that delves into themes of love, loss, and the passage of time. The story is centered around a group of close-knit friends who reunite for one final summer together before life inevitably pulls them in different directions. As they navigate the complexities of adulthood, the novel captures the bittersweet essence of saying goodbye to a chapter of life that they know will never come again.

Great review! As a lucid dreamer myself, the “gifted dreamer” concept immediately sticks out to me. While it's not new by any means, there are so many ways to put fresh spins on it, just as there are endless ways to interpret dreams. The story sounds like something out an indie film though I can’t quite explain why. Perhaps it’s more the “feel” than the story itself. Even the book cover gives those vibes lol.

I guess I can call him Raif the dreamer. I hope he uses his gift for good things. I'll read the book to find out.

Interesting tale coming in the form of fantasy. Right from the symbolic cover page one can sense that the novel is already a great one. Dreams play a crucial role in this book.

Raif the Dreamer would sound rather unusual, but interesting. I would love to find out what a gifted dreamer such as he can achieve with such a gift and also the magical world that exists in those dreams of his.

The review of "One Last Summer" by Craig Christophel depicts a unique and captivating fictional story. The protagonist, Raif, becomes immersed in a town after performing a heroic act. The author skillfully combines supernatural elements with deep contexts, making it an interesting read. Raif's strong moral code, anti-corruption stance, and capacity to love make him an admirable character. The book is a page-turner, making it difficult to put down. The writing style is easy to understand, despite the quirky nature of the story. The reviewer rates it 5 out of 5 stars and recommends it to fantasy lovers. However, it is mentioned that the book may contain inappropriate discussions for children. Overall, it appears to be a highly recommended and enjoyable read.

True experience brings realisation, the protagonist Raif must have pass through a lot before he realises that he is a dreamer through his effort in doing what is right, though I'm not fan of fantasy novel but this one is a most read.
