Every night. All night. Painful and perplexing, the nightmares of a woman in captivity calling for help escalate until she is having them during the day, wide awake. Doctors prescribe pills. Therapists theorize about past lives and post-traumatic stress. Fortune tellers predict she will meet a tall, mysterious stranger. Julia would prefer to blame her ex, her job, even the Santa Ana winds. In spite of her long history as a loner, she turns to a support group for women with sleep disorders. To her amazement she learns that the other lesbians in the group--and only the lesbians--are having similar nightmares. No longer believing these vivid night visions are in their heads, the women join forces to find the source of their disturbance. Since Julia knows that her dreams focus on the woman she's named Sirena, finding Sirena is her number one priority. Convincing the other lesbians to help her comb the Mojave Desert is only the beginning of the adventure. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A disappointmentThink of a female alien, originally from an all female planet, and to that add the things you associate with TV series such as "X-files", "Babylon Five" or "Star Trek" and movies such as "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" or "ET". So you have the alien obsessed people living in the middle of the desert, the alien kidnappings and the stealing of foetus, visions, telepathy, the gift of superpowers but without regards to a prime directive. Then, to all of this you add several lesbians, lesbian sex ... Read More Rating:  - Best lesbian sci-fi I've readThere's no sub-text here! No coy looks or cuddles -- this story is about LESBIANS. It's a great story, too. I really liked Maddy's character. She's very real and funny. All these unbelievable things start happening to her and she really doesn't believe them until she has proof. It's way better than the X Files. Really diverting, I read it in a long night. It was a terrific roller coaster all the way. I laughed a lot, got goosebumps, cried twice and almost had to wake up my girlfriend after some really ... Read More Rating: - I didn't know there were books like thisI seem to spend my reading time sifting through science fiction or fantasy books to glean a little bit of lesbian content, or even a smattering of sub-text. I had no idea that anyone but Jean Stewart was writing sci-fi with central lesbian characters. Not only does Night Vision focus on a central lesbian character -- who is hilariously funny in a backhanded way -- most of the characters are lesbians and the entire plot turns on that fact. This was an absolutely riveting and satisfying read and I will certainly ... Read More Rating: - Better than the X-FilesAfter reading Laura Adams's incredible "Sleight of Hand" I decided I had to read her other books. The only disappointment I had with this book was that it is shorter than Sleight of Hand. In spite of that, the plot was completely executed, with every loose end tied up. Maddy is sardonic and funny, and I believed everything that happened to her was possible. Unlike the X-Files, the story was completely lesbian. The ending was moving and very satisfying. I've never liked romance novels per se, but if the love scenes ... Read More Rating: - I'm a believerNight Vision is a fantastic science fiction story, tightly plotted and convincingly real. When a group of lesbians realize that they are all sharing the same nightmares, their search for answers leads them into the heart of the Mojave Desert and to a woman named Sirena, who is being held captive. The problems they encounter, the talents they all bring to the table forms an inspired story as told by Maddy. Maddy's low expectations from life and love have made her sarcastic and self-deprecating, and her wit is delightful. ... Read More
