Superhereos Wear Faded Denim
by Law Reigns
Blissany Cherry is tired of sleeping around. Her
neurologists’ sleep solutions have failed her. Now that her bizarre sleeping
habits have begun to include week long dreams she has resorted to her own
methods for a cure.
METHOD ONE: CONTROL DREAMS. All attempts to
morph dreams about a gorgeous warrior into romantic fantasies are thwarted. He
keeps on insisting she is destined to marry a great king and lead their armies
into war. At the end of every dream he asks her: will you fight the war and
save mankind?
She laughs in his face.
METHOD TWO: RESIST! Blissany has plans for her
life. None include fighting an intergalactic war. When her dreams
begin spilling over into reality, she is forced to make a decision that will
forever redefine her life. Standing between destiny and desire, she is left
with only one option.
METHOD THREE: SURVIVE.
About the Author:
Law Reigns has an odd obsession with romance. At the advice of her
friends, she gave up the plight of playing cupid in their lives. Developing her
own characters to manipulate proved to be more rewarding. After having studied
creative writing at the University of Florida, she decided to write Superheroes
Wear Faded Denim. A proud Gator alumni, she based her novel where blood
runs orange and blue. She personally invites all adventure druggies and love
fanatics to dive into the pages of Faded Denim, a story that transforms a
swampy, southern town into a battlefield for life and love.

Why this story:
I wrote this story for three reasons:
1. As a narcoleptic, I wanted to inspire others by
writing a story about a character who struggles to overcome sleep. Harriet
Tubman’s story inspired me. For those who do not know, she was also a
narcoleptic. She most certainly did not let it bother her. Anyone who faces
obstacles in life will be inspired by this story of triumph.
2. Telling the story of a young woman who had to
undergo a transformation to achieve greatness was important to me. Life will
always ask more of us, more than we sometimes even think we can give.
3. I wanted to capture the beauty and culture of my
college experience. There are so many different types of people we meet in
college. Many stories do not even try to convey this.
Book Review:
This
book is very surrealistic. It requires
an ability to put aside the “normal” view of the world and accept the world of
the book to fully grasp the concepts and ideas of the book. It would drive my husband crazy, but I
enjoyed it for the most part. At times I
was lost and confused, but those were rare.
The plot was so intense, dark, and gritty with hints of humor, romance and a fabulous subplot to boot. The characters were unique yet very believable and realistic. The characters evolve from “normal” to superhero and try to do the right thing. It was interesting to watch the dynamics unfold.
While
not my usual fare, this book was definitely worth reading. I enjoyed the author taking on issues not
generally dealt with in literature. I
give this book 4 out of 5 clouds.
