Dreams in the Distance
Dreams in the Distance, Book I of THE CHOICE series: What voices influence your choices?
Make your choice, adventurous Stranger,
Strike the bell and bide the danger,
Or wonder, till it drives you mad,
What would have followed if you had?
The Magician's Nephew, C. S. Lewis
In 1952 London and C. S. Lewis's & J. R. R. Tolkien's Oxford, five young people pursue their Dreams in the Distance as they choose their life paths influenced by either holy voices of inspiration or insidious voices of seduction.
Faced with your greatest choices, how do you know which one is right?
It is 1952 Britain. The war is over, but not the personal battles for beautiful Lily Whitely; brilliant Phila Claiborne; her brother, the blueblood Hugh Claiborne; the brave Ollie Ogilvie; and the beguiling Dan McCauley.

• Lily desires a future and fame in the world of fashion.
• Phila revels in studying at university with her literary heroes, but longs to find her Prince Charming.
• Hugh's deepest desire is to find the glory and honor he never realized during the war.
• Ollie confronts his wartime demons, proceeding a new life path hoping to find happiness.
• Dan, grounded from flying, seeks solace in humanism and the love of a woman.

But they have an enemy more insidious than they ever could have imagined, one bent on destroying their dreams - and their souls.
They find themselves tangled in a web of personal crises and deception, throughout London and Oxford, where they encounter angels, dark whispers, and choices that will change their lives forever.
Infused with the influences (and appearances) of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, Nan Rinella has crafted a powerful tale about the decisions we make (and where those decisions take us) that will delight readers far beyond their expectations.
