Chicago, 1950: Five years after coming home from the war, Jason Kontos has put together a comfortable life as a sports writer for the Chicago Daily Post. Called away from his desk to help cover a trolley car accident, Kontos is flung into a mystery involving a beautiful blonde who is fleeing from circumstances that soon embroil Kontos in a realm of darkness. Smitten by the girl's beauty, Kontos initially tries to ignore her fantastical tales of another world, but come the full moon in October, he follows her headlong through a veil in Time and into a world of medieval intrigue, ancient evil, and noble Knights; and where every step he takes could be his last. In this violent, supernatural tale, Kontos is forced to face incredible malevolence and survive in a world far too similar to the one he left. October's Dream is a tale of love and loss in another world.
