Dream of a Hero - inspiration

Just the blurb - will post an excerpt on Friday, in the newsletter.

Mild-mannered and unassuming, Miles is on a journey he never expected. After a visit to Greece with his partner, Roger, he begins to experience vivid dreams in which he travels back in history and takes on the role of avenging hero.
Roger notices Miles's newfound bravery during his waking hours and is concerned that his lover is changing into someone he doesn't recognize.
When they discover a gay-friendly café is being plagued by violent thugs, Miles is uncharacteristically determined to take action, no matter the cost. Roger argues it would be both dangerous and pointless to intervene, but Miles insists he's been called to fight an army, and now he's found one.


If you want to know what inspired the story, go to Matt Alber's web site and listen to the track Beotia.

I love the harp - it's not often used in modern songs. I Googled, and found the lyrics. Plus, there's a video.

Goodness, he's gorgeous, isn't he?
