Dream Detective

Rating:
Summary: A Trip On Paper
Review: Sax Rohmer is better known for the creation of the master villian Fu Manchu which is a shame because Dream Detective is just as entertaining.

The book concerns several short stories in which the curio dealer-paranormal expert Moris Klaw and his too hot for the page daughter Isis investigate what seem to be supernatural occurances (or are they). This could be the distant grand parent of Scooby Doo.


Moris can pick up mental impressions from rooms by going to sleep in them with his specially treated pillow (hence the title). The character is crazy-like a fox.

Some of the stories can be a bit formula at time but the trip is out of this world. Like a dope dream on paper. A fast read worth the while.
