Poet Anderson ...of Nightmares by Tom DeLonge

The world they've created was extremely intriguing, and I found myself captivated by the ideas they had set up-of poets tunnelling into various dreams, of Night Terrors representing one's fears, and of Genesis, a city where lucid dreamers can meet. I was really fascinated by some of the ideas that DeLonge and Young rose in this book. There wasn't a boring moment in this book.

In a way, there was a small mystery to be solved, and Jonas was always in some sort of confusion or danger. I was really pleasantly surprised by how this book drew me in and had me flipping pages furiously to find out what happened.įor the most part, this was a really strong action book, with a fast moving plot and a lot of high stakes tension. As such, I was going to read this book out of loyalty, but I honestly wasn't expecting too much. The Dream Walker is one of my favourite albums. He’s a real genuine, ambitious and inspiring person that I love calling a friend.”ĭeLonge will continue his Poet Anderson work with the forthcoming ‘Poet Anderson …Of Nightmares’ novel, the first of three created in collaboration with New York Times author Suzanne Young.In addition to having a fantastic musical piece backing it, this was a really strong and exciting book.Īngels & Airwaves are on of my all time favourite bands.

It was nothing short of a dream to work with him, let alone having him compliment me on my work and feeling like a true friend of his rather than just a work partner. “And I was so humbled that he picked me to bring Poet to life.

“As a big fan of Tom’s, I knew all about the Poet franchise and couldn’t have been more stoked to be a part of it,” adds Tyler Posey. While the dreams are romantic, fun and adventurous, a real threat exists requiring someone there at all times to protect her.” Meant to be a bit ambiguous and artistic, the plot traces the edge of a girl having recurring dreams of a boy at her school. Telling a different tale to the animation, DeLonge has described the film as “a brief and modest look into the mythology of the Poet Anderson universe. The animated version of ‘Poet Anderson’ has already secured the Best Animated Film award at the Toronto International Short Film Festival, centering around a Lucid Dreamer who can access both the Waking and Dream Worlds. The film also features Dylan Sprayberry (Man of Steel), Taylor Spreitler (Melissa & Joey) and Samantha Logan (The Fosters).

The Grammy Museum in downtown Los Angeles will be the first venue to host a screening. Set to be exclusively premiered on the 13th October 2015, the short film features Teen Wolf star Tyler Posey. Having recently revealed he believed blink-182 to be holding him back from his creative endeavours, Tom DeLonge is adding to his repertoire with a live action short based around his ‘Poet Anderson’ narrative.
