In Dreams We Sleep is the story of Niente's descent into the pits of despair. He is a drug user, using to escape the demons of his mentally ill existence. The world around him is blurring, the distinction between reality and dreams disappearing.A woman tells him he has to change the world, her age keeps changing each time he meets her in both the real world and that of his hallucinations. He doesn't know if she is real or just a figment of his fractured brain. As Niente follows her instructions, his world crumbles to its final days.Niente has been chosen by fate to make the biggest decision known to humanity: the choice of life or death.As he struggles to come to terms with the insanity of reality, he pulls his closest friends down with him into the depths of madness.No one is safe; no one will live. Answers can be dismissed, conclusions argued. However finality is just that. Final.

Go back... existing in an alternate world. Chemically calm or chemically enhanced. The choice always a pill, a line, a glass. Record the pain, get it out from the head. Let the words echo into the air, vibrations locked in the surroundings for eternity. One chance, one redemption, one way of escape. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Thoughts of Discord continues the story of the author's life from the painful end of The Mushroom Diaries. Behind the backdrop of trying to produce his band's debut album Self Degraded Suicide, Thoughts of Discord follows his fall into the depths of depression and drug addiction. This is the solitary journey into the mouth of the abyss. A study of a person. A study of a soul. Another twisted love story.

Dominic Lyne's "Cycle-2" series charts the beginnings of the author's journey through the mental health system through a collection of illustrated shorts and diary entries. It allows the reader into the author's mind, revealing how he perceives the world around him, his thoughts and addictions. It provides an interesting insight into the mind of someone who is truly not connected with 'reality'. A look into the otherside of the mirror. This all-in-one edition compiles all three books and includes 'Eyes of Insanity', 80 pages of bonus material containing a wealth of previously unreleased images, writings and transcripts, adding further depth to the Cycle-2 journey.

When you've opened your mind so often, allowed it to journey on the other side of reality's mirror frequently, it changes. Small things, gaps left visible, a wafer thin barrier is all that separates the sides. Visions living in your head, memories pulled up from the past and acted out with clarity, past confusions solved painfully in dreams. Reality splitting. By remembering you reopen, old cuts bleed afresh. Welcome to madness. Based upon journal entries and notes written at the time, The Mushroom Diaries catalogue six of the trips the author and his boyfriend experienced as they allowed their mushroom induced visions to lead them through the streets and subways of London. The Mushroom Diaries is the story of two people, a twisted romance coloured in glorious Technicolor.
