Poet Anderson ...of Nightmares is Tom DeLonge's first novel, written in collaboration with New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Young. The novel was published in October 2015 by To the Stars. It is the first book of the upcoming Poet Anderson trilogy.[1]
Jonas Anderson and his older brother Alan are Lucid Dreamers. But after a car accident lands Alan in a coma, Jonas sets out into the Dream World in an attempt to find his brother and wake him up. What he discovers instead is an entire shared consciousness where fear comes to life as a snarling beast called a Night Terror, and a creature named REM is bent on destruction and misery, devouring the souls of the strongest dreamers. With the help of a Dream Walker—a guardian of the dreamscape, Jonas must face his fears, save his brother, and become who he was always meant to be: Poet Anderson.
Consequence of Sound called the book "a blend between Harry Potter and The Matrix".[2]
In 2017 Tantor Media released ...of Nightmarres in audiobook format, narrated by Liam Gerrard. The title has received critical acclaim and achieved 4.5 star ratings out of 5 on Audible.
To The Stars has partnered with RatPac[3][4] to bring Poet Anderson to big screens. It is hoped the movie's budget might reach $100m.[5]
DeLonge is also filming a short feature film with Tyler Posey and Dylan Sprayberry[6]
