In Slaves Of Sleep, did you enjoy ...

... the dreamlike, mythological crossing between worlds?

The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath by H. P. Lovecraft

If you found the transition between the waking world and the supernatural realm of the Ifrits in Slaves of Sleep captivating, you'll love how Randolph Carter journeys through bizarre, fantastical dreamlands in The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath. Lovecraft weaves a tapestry of otherworldly cities, gods, and terrors, immersing you in a myth-inspired adventure where the boundaries of reality are always shifting.

... unexpected magical twists and reality-bending adventure?

The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers

If you enjoyed the wild unpredictability of Jan Palmer's magical entanglements and the way Slaves of Sleep constantly throws new surprises at its hero, The Anubis Gates will sweep you away with its time-traveling, body-swapping, and magical conspiracies. The plot is packed with jaw-dropping twists as Professor Brendan Doyle is swept into a centuries-old mystical conflict.

... a fast-paced, witty, and adventurous tone?

The Stainless Steel Rat by Harry Harrison

If you liked the snappy dialogue and gleeful sense of humor in Slaves of Sleep—especially the playful banter between Jan and his supernatural adversaries—The Stainless Steel Rat is a rollicking ride. Slippery antihero James diGriz uses wit and resourcefulness to outsmart his foes, making for an adventure as energetic and fun as Hubbard’s tale.

... magic that is mysterious and loosely defined?

The Face in the Frost by John Bellairs

If the unpredictable, illogical magic of the Ifrit realm in Slaves of Sleep caught your imagination, you’ll appreciate the whimsical, enigmatic sorcery of The Face in the Frost. Magician Prospero’s journey is filled with strange spells and dreamlike oddities, creating a magical world that feels both wondrous and perilous, with rules that are as mysterious as the plot itself.

... a relentless, goal-driven protagonist on a mission?

The Stars My Destination by Alfred Bester

If you loved following Jan Palmer’s desperate quest to break his curse and survive the machinations of magical enemies in Slaves of Sleep, you’ll be riveted by Gully Foyle’s single-minded drive for revenge in The Stars My Destination.
