Description

<p><strong><em>A tragic warrior lost in two worlds... Which one will he choose?</em></strong></p><p>The war in Iraq ended for Freddie when an IED explosion left his mind and body shattered. Once a skilled gamer as well as a capable soldier, he's now a broken warrior, emerging from a medically induced coma to discover he's inhabiting two separate realities.</p><p>The first is his waking world of pain, family trials, and remorse—and slow rehabilitation through the tender care of Becky, his physical therapist. The second is a dark fantasy realm of quests, demons, and magic, which Freddie enters when he sleeps. The lines soon blur for Freddie, not just caught between two worlds, but lost within himself.</p><p>Is he Lieutenant Freddie Williams, a leader of men, a proud officer in the US Army who has suffered such egregious injury and loss? Or is he Frederick, Prince of Stormwind, who must make sense of his horrific visions in order to save his embattled kingdom from the monstrous Horde, his only solace the beautiful gardener, Rebecca, whose gentle words calm the storms in his soul.</p><p>In the conscious world, the severely wounded vet faces a strangely similar and equally perilous mission to that of the prince—a journey along a dark road, haunted by demons of guilt and memory. Can he let patient, loving Becky into his damaged and shuttered heart? It may be his only way back from Hell.</p>

I sat down to read this book one cold day in December and practically couldn't put it down. My family wondered what I was giggling about. It's just because the superhero lover in me was taking out baddies along with Dave. . . . All in all, I found Tales of the Dim Knight to be a well-written fast-paced action adventure with a timeless message worth reading.<br /></span></span></strong></span></span></span></strong></span><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;"><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;"><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-size:8px;"><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;">—</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></strong></span><a href="http://creativeadventuring.blogspot.com/2011/02/todays-post-is-review-of-hilarious.html" style="font-weight:normal;font-family:Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;font-style:normal;text-decoration:underline;color:#00488c;">Chris Solaas</a></span></span></strong></span></div><div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;"><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong></strong></span></span></span></strong></span></div><div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;"><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><span style="text-transform:none;text-indent:0px;border-collapse:separate;font:normal normal normal medium/normal 'Times New Roman';letter-spacing:normal;color:#000000;word-spacing:0px;"><span style="text-align:left;line-height:21px;font-family:Candara, Verdana, sans-serif;color:#111111;font-size:13px;">Pull on your tights and hang that cape around your neck, we’re going for a ride.
