Driven by his dreams, Asa will stop at nothing to find Tanja Duhr again: he will leave home, disappoint his parents, cross the wastelands, and, somewhere, find the courage to tell her who he is, and how she loved him, once.

"River of Souls" takes place in the same world as Beth Bernobich's Passion Play, some 400 years before the events of that novel.

Main character goes to a big city in the neighboring empire because he believes he was the lover of a famous poet of that city in a previous life. The famous poet is old now, and hasn't really published poetry like she had when she was younger. Can our MC's dreams awaken the poet she once was? Am I going to care? No.
