Coma: The Nightmare Between Dreams

By Allen E. Goldenthal

TEN CHILDREN ARE IN COMAS. THEIR MINDS ARE SOMEWHERE ELSE.
Dr. Zane Katzel has spent years caring for children medicine can keep alive but cannot awaken. Then ten of his patients begin producing the same impossible patterns on their EEGs; signals too synchronized to be coincidence and too purposeful to be random.
With an experimental neural Decoder, Zane and his team discover the unthinkable. The children are conscious inside a shared world beyond ordinary perception: a grey, shifting realm built from their memories and fears. And something is hunting them there.
The children call it the Slow Drum.
Zane calls it a Soul Eater.
When science gives him a window into the nightmare but no way to pull the children out, Zane makes a choice no physician should ever have to make. He will place himself into an induced coma, cross the boundary between mind and matter, and enter Delta World.
But rescuing ten children means confronting a world that can read thought, weaponize fear, and reshape itself faster than its prisoners can escape.
COMA is a medical science-fiction horror thriller about consciousness, sacrifice, and the terrifying possibility that some coma patients may not be lost at all.
