The Legend of Sam Miracle
N. D. Wilson
Book summary:
Samuel Miracle has dreams. And they aren’t normal, nighttime dreams. They happen constantly, and when Sam is dreaming them, he can’t control his body. One moment he could be sitting in a chair inside an air-conditioned building, and the next he could be lying in the desert with vultures circling overhead.
Sam’s dreams are lifelike. Very lifelike. Always in his dreams, he has arms that work. He’s brave. Strong. And always ends up dead. He is always killed by the one outlaw, every single time.
But one day, Same discovers that his dreams aren’t just dreams, they are memories. His memories.
It turns out that the outlaw in Sam’s dreams, named El Buitre, is out to kill Sam. And its only a matter of time before he finds out where Sam is hiding. Can Sam escape with his life in time?
