Five thousand years ago Lilith, the Great Matriarch ruled the world and women's powers were potent and prevailing. Then Cyrus grew angry, for men were oppressed, and slew Lilith. Cyrus's consort, the succubus Lilith, entered the consciousness of all humans and took away their nightly dreams, intuition and soul-power. Slowly... force and technology that came with Cyrus' the patriarchy came to dominate. Those people that had faith in dreams and enough bravery to dissent were forced into the sewers below the city to live.
In the 21st century the immortal Cyrus is the world's most powerful media magnate, controlling the cables that deliver internet access across the globe. He is feared and wooed by politicians and businesses and those that oppose him are crushed. Now his plans to seal shut the portal between Earth and the other worlds and stop Lilith's only avenue of return are near to completion. Only one man stands his way: Alex.
When the other dreamweavers were locked up in sewers under the cities, Alex was a young boy, unaware of his gift. When his powers started to emerge, Lilith the succubus found him and placed a special monitor in his back molar that stopped the dreams and told her exactly where he was. As a young man he's frequently drunk, trapped in a boring construction job, and has a strong anti-authoritarian streak, so she believed him to be unimportant.
It is through Alex that Lilith returns to Earth. She has come, not to rule, but to pass on to humanity nine tests for all to use and evolve: Nine deadly venoms that will dethrone Cyrus forever. If Alex can pass them he will bring to life his gift and find the powers, hidden by the priestesses of old, that can keep open the portal forever. And he has exactly four days to do this.
Based on the book "Nine Deadly Venoms", by Alex Gordon.
