   Summary

   After leaving the White Horse in 1989, Robert Gadling goes to sleep and doesn’t wake up for years - to everyone’s dismay, he doesn’t age a day. Meanwhile, he finds himself completely conscious, yet trapped in the realm of the Dreaming, where he inadvertently ends up as a pillar of its decaying community while also learning more about the strange being that stood him up and made his long life possible.
