He continues to unknowingly bring Nethercreatures into his room when he has a nightmare. One night, Charlie brings a Silvertongue into his room. Charlie wakes up before the Silvertoungue kills him, and sees a team of three people, Rex, Tabitha, and Pinch attempting to bring the creature back to where it belongs. After the fight, Charlie's parents meet the team. Pinch explains that Charlie has the Gift, which allows him to open portals into the Nether and bring creatures across them. Charlie's gift is too strong, which can become dangerous. Pinch suggests that Charlie follow them to the Nightmare Division, who will decide what should be done with such a dangerous boy. Charlie's mother reluctantly allows him to go. عنوانها: انتقام هیولا؛ جنگ هیولا؛ هیولاهای چارلی؛ نویسنده: دین لوری؛ تاریخ نخستین خوانش روز سی ام ماه اکتبر سال 2011میلادیعنوان: انتقام هیولا؛ نویسنده: دین لوری؛ مترجم رامک فدائیان؛ تهران، افراز‏‫ ، 1389؛ در 256ص؛ شابک 9789642433513؛ موضوع داستانهای نویسندگان ایالات متحده آمریکا - سده 21م‬عنوان: جنگ هیولا؛ نویسنده: دین لوری؛ مترجم رامک فدائیان؛ تهران، افراز‏، 1389؛ در 280ص؛ شابک 9789642433346؛ عنوان: هیولاهای چارلی؛ نویسنده: دین لوری؛ مترجم رامک فدائیان؛ تهران، افراز، 1390؛ در 300ص؛ شابک 9789642433520؛‬نقل نمونه متن: «چارلی با فریادی از خواب پرید؛ موهایش از فرط عرق روی پیشانی چسبیده بود، و قلبش آنچنان درون سینه میزد که حس میکرد ممکن است دنده هایش را بشکند؛ «من دیگه هیچ وقت نمیخوابم»؛ از تخت پایین آمد و به دقت راه خود را از میان تاریکی اتاق، به باریکه ی نوری که از زیر در میآمد باز کرد تا به راهرو برود؛ دستش به چیزی برخورد کرد؛ موجود کابوسش آنجا ایستاده بود!؛چارلی نفس بریده گفت «نه»؛ آن موجود قد علم کرد، و با نیش بلند و خمیده ی خود، آماده ی حمله شد؛ مایعی غلیظ از نوک نیش ترسناکش سرازیر شد؛ زانوهای چارلی شل شد، و به زمین افتاد؛ «نه»، دم هیولا سوت کشان و با قدرتی چکش مانند به سمت او میآمد...؛ «چارلی بنجامین» بیشتر روزها کاملاً مطمئن بود که تنهاترین بچه ی روی کره‌ ی زمین است؛ او که خانه‌ اش در خیابانی واقع در مجتمعی محصور قرار داشت، به‌ تنهایی به مدرسه می‌رفت؛ با وجودی که نمای بیرونی خانه‌ ها همه از نزدیک شبیه‌ به‌ هم به‌ نظر می‌رسیدند، مدل برای انتخاب خریداران متعدد بود؛ بنجامین‌ها در مدل شماره‌ ی سه زندگی می‌کردند؛ پدر چارلی دائماً به او گوشزد می‌کرد که «مدل شماره سه از همه بهتر» است؛ او مرد کاملی بود که نام کاملی همچون بارینگتون داشت؛ مدل شماره یک به‌ وضوح تقلیده، هرچی کمتر راجع بهش حرف بزنیم، بهتره؛ ولی شماره دو مال وقتیه که کسی بخواد خیلی سریع و سرسری دوباره کاری انجام بده؛ بنابراین به‌ جای برداشتن یک قدم به جلو، مثل اینه که دو قدم به عقب برداشته باشی؛ اما مدل شماره سه ساده، محکم و قابل اعتماده؛ مدل شماره سه، زندان چارلی بنجامین بود؛ او به‌ عنوان یک پسر سیزده‌ ساله جثه‌ ی کوچکی داشت؛ موهای سرکشش به رنگ شنزار و چشمانش قهوه‌ ای تیره بودند؛ اطراف بینی و گونه‌ هایش نیز کک‌ مکی بود؛ به‌ همت اصرارهای مادر خوش‌نیتش که در خانه بماند، زانوها و آرنج‌هایش پوستی صاف و لطیف داشت و هیچ کبودی بر بدن او دیده نمی‌شد؛ مادر اغلب به او می‌گفت «این دنیا، خیلی جای مطمئنی نیست؛ من می‌تونم توی خونه مواظبت باشم، ولی به‌ محض این‌که پاتو از این‌جا بیرون بذاری...»؛ بعد، انگار که حتی فکر کردن به ترس‌های زندگیِ بیرون از مدل شماره سه خیلی دردناک باشد، موقّرانه سر تکان می‌داد؛ چارلی یک‌بار در یک صبح روز شنبه بعد از سرتکان‌دادن‌های موقرانه مادرش به او گفت «می‌دونم همیشه همینو می‌گی؛ ولی دلیل نمی‌شه واقعیت داشته باشه؛ من از این‌که مجبورم همیشه این‌جا بمونم، خسته شده‌ ام؛ می‌خوام به یه مدرسه معمولی برم»؛ پایان نقل؛ تاریخ بهنگام رسانی 06/04/1399هجری خورشیدی؛ ا. شربیانی

I think Dean Lorey did a fantastic job of Nightmare Academy! i love seeing the characters grow and find all the different challenges! Nightmare Academy teaches that no one is perfect and anyone can pursue their challenges!

Charlie’s imagination is so strong that when he has a nightmare, the nightmare creature gets portaled right into the room where he’s sleeping. This caused a lot of problems for Charlie, including his parents becoming both over-protective of him and very restrictive, isolating him from other people and children. People are afraid of him, and he doesn’t fit in anywhere. Charlie is very lonely, until one day some people come from the Nightmare Academy, a school that trains children with imagination to fight the monsters from the Netherworld. Charlie is one of the most powerful people at the academy, and he still doesn’t fit in–but he gains a few good friends and starts his training. He ends up having to fight powerful monsters, work to save his family, and deal with bullies. Through this, Charlie finds that he can use his imagination and self-doubt for good–and he can find his own place to fit in, after all. Don’t let the cover fool you–this is a funny, light-hearted fantasy.Lorey opens the book by showing us how lonely and alone Charlie is, bringing instant reader empathy, and then quickly moves into zany humor. This humor and kookiness runs throughout the book; Lorey has a good sense of comedic timing. THe humor plus the array of characters who support Charlie and look out for him, help to bring lightness to the story. Although the monsters are presented as a threat, they never seem truly scary, and Charlie always overcomes or overpowers them. Even sections of the story that might take a much deeper, more serious tone in another book are suffused with lightness in this one, so the book feels like a pleasure read, never taking the reader to truly dark places or painful emotion. This is not a tension-fraught book. The fantasy explanations for some of the things that happen in the real world also add fun and lightness–such as Gremlins coming to Earth and eating up the power, creating rolling blackouts in New York and California.You can read my entire review here.

** spoiler alert ** I think I get nervous anytime I see that a new author has a Hollywood background, so when I saw Nightmare Academy's gorgeous cover and slick website, I was prepared for a big movie treatment that lacked substance. A few friends had read the book though and said it was very good to excellent. After reading it for myself, I have to agree that this is a wonderful piece of young adult fiction. The general premise is that children with intelligence and great imaginations can generate some of the worst nightmares and these nightmares can actually open portals from the Netherworld and allow nightmarish creatures to enter our world. So some of these kids are recruited into the Nightmare Academy so they can learn to open portals while awake or to partner with somebody who can to banish these creatures back to the Nether. Our hero Charlie's power is great which has lead to a string of catastrophes during events such as nap time when in preschool and a sleepover, so when he gets recruited to join the Nightmare Academy he thinks he's finally found a place where he can fit in and not feel so different. Even at the Nightmare Academy the strength of his gift sets him apart and gets him in trouble. The way the adult teachers and headmaster of the Academy are written and how they handle Charlie and their ability to empathize what he is going through really show how Dean Lorey has depth and intelligence as a writer. He really treats his characters with respect and rather than falling into the trap of having his characters withholding information from each other because they feel they are protecting them, or that they aren't ready to know certain things, these characters are honest with each other and exhibit a level of trust rarely seen in young adult fantasy. Not to say he's the only one that does this, but I think he takes it to a level that is very refreshing. This story has a vivid and exciting world, very real and threatening danger, and lots of adventure. Charlie's friends are also not your stereotypical friends either. This story is all about facing your fears, dealing with insecurities, and using your faults to your advantage. I highly recommend it.

Nightmare Academy by Dean Lorey is an amazing book because the storyline and how the things that happen are introduced is just truly amazing. Nightmare Academy is about a boy named Charlie who always has nightmares, ´´Sometimes bad things happen when I have nightmares´´ and by that Charlie means he basicly opens a portal for the monsters in his nightmares to come into the real world. Charlie goes to a sleepover and has a nightmare when it was time to go to sleep, the nightmare was about a spider and the spider tried to eat the other kids but the spider didn´t try to eat Charlie. Charlie then goes to the Nightmare Academy because that is the only place for him and I am not going to spoil the ending, so you are going to have to read it, I recommend this book if you like books that are creepy and suspenseful.

Have you ever had the fear of feeling that someone is watching you while you're asleep? Have you ever feared that your nightmares may come into a reality? Well for Charlie both aren't a choice for him to have.Charlie Benjamin is an ordinary looking kid through out the day, but at night when he falls asleep, he manages to open portals into the Netherworld which is a world filled with horrendous monsters of all kinds. His parents have even had to lock him up on his room because they had no idea what was wrong with him. But luckily for Charlie there was a place who knew exactly what he is going through. Welcome to Nightmare Academy a place where teens are taught to control their "gifts" and are trained to use them for the greater good. I strongly recommend this book to the Fantasy, Action, and Adventure lovers. The book has an incredibly interesting background/plot that links the mysterious unknown Netherworld all the way to the "safe" Humanworld.

Yo this shayte was hella gud like wtf i thought this was gonna be those types of books that i would of just pretended to read and put it back.But once i actually decided to read the first page i was hooked.Not only was the beginning very interesting but i felt like the Main protagonist was an easy going main character who had no friends and end up becoming someone who isn't normal but in a good way.

I am reading many series. And yet there is non, that can make me read them one after another so fast like I readed this one. As soon as I ended the first book, I started reading the second, and then the third. Non of the books I read today, makes me want to read the second one as soon as I end the first one. I love every single book. Its worth reading.

Fun, page-turning story, for middle-graders and up, set at Nightmare Academy, where Charlie Benjamin and his schoolmates learn to control the monsters that their nightmares bring to Earth. Sending this on to my grandsons.

It's a very nice book series. I like how this whole system is explained, and how it all fits together and makes sense. Charlie is someone a lot of people can really relate to, and his friends are good. I'm hoping Theodore gets with Volet c:

Easy to find HP similarities but this was a very fun enjoyable read for this adult

this was a brilliant book I really enjoyed it I want to read it over and over again I truly recommend this book to people who like gory love and arguing thanks xxx

The novel Monster Hunters, by Dean Lorey, is about a boy named Charlie and when he goes to bed he gets Nightmares but, the problem is those nightmares come to life and spawn in his bedroom. All of the nightmares come out of the Nether world which is a whole world of monsters. The monsters are ranked on a scale, the higher the number or level, the stronger the monster is. Fortunately, one night after Charlie's nightmare, three people come to his room out of a portal and bring him to a place called the Nightmare Academy to train people like him to control the power that they they posses to help fight the nightmares that come out at night from the portal. Later, the teachers of the Nightmare Academy test Charlie to see how strong of a portal he can open but by accident Charlie opened a portal straight to the strongest monsters, and only a few people could have opened a portal that strong. Before Charlie closed it he heard the monsters plotting earths doom. Charlie, with the help of his friends, create a plan to put a rest to the monsters plans. The author Dean Lorey, help us figure out that lesson of the story is that your friends always have your back. For example, Charlie's friends came with him to help try to stop the monsters. Without Charlie's friends he probably wouldn't have made it. I can relate to this book because if you are either having a tough time or being bullied, your true friends are always there to comfort you or stand up for you. This book is enjoyable to anybody who enjoys fantasy and adventure books. Many people enjoyed this book because Dean Lorey did a good job describing the setting of the story. Readers around ten and older will enjoy this book.

For being a book directed towards a younger audience, it was such a thriller, so much excitement throughout! From the outside Charlie may seem like your average kid, but his parents are protecting him from himself or his nightmares ?.. as the story progresses we learn that Charlie is no average kid he is way beyond that, he has “the gift” and very strongly too. I just love how Charlie goes from being all alone and feeling like the outcast, to finding real friends and adults who take him under their wings, and let him know he is never alone and they all come together to help him through anything when he needs them most. I also loved how different the nightmare academy is, it was like a skip into a different type of fantasy land. I’d recommend this book to any child struggling to come to terms with themselves, I feel there is so much to learn from this. We are never alone and may find lifelong friends when we least expect it. If we learn to embrace our fears instead of run from them we can conquer anything!

The back of the book describes it as "Monsters Inc. meets Harry Potter" and this is spot on. There was so much I loved about this book. The different creatures, the roles of the team fighting them, the sacrifices they made to help each other, the really cool villains, and the tactics the kids come up with to win. The hags were a really cool addition too, same with the Gorgons and Mimics. The writer is so creative from what they eat to what they smell like. I also love the nightmare facility is high in the trees and made from broken ships. And the Trout of TRUTH! Ahh!! This book is so whimsical. I loved the world it created and how original it was. I would definitely recommend it.I will be buying the next books in the series. This is a keeper for sure.

Tummen upp!!Charlie Benjamin är inte som andra. När han sover tenderar han att drömma mardrömmar, och det han drömmer stannar inte i fantasin utan kommer in i vår verklighet. Inte bra! Charlie, stackaren, har aldrig förstått vad som händer honom. Inte hans föräldrar heller. De tror att det är han som slår sönder rum och väver in kompisarna i kokonger (?!)Det finns dock en skola för folk som Charlie och naturligtvis har folk från Mardrömsakademien hållit ett öga på honom. Snart är Charlie elev på stället, och väl på plats för att lära sig kontrollera sin krafter visar sig Charlie vara extraordinär även för en student på denna märkliga skola.

Fantastico libro per adolescenti, ti porta letteralmente in un altro mondo, narrativa molto lineare e capace di farti immedesimare totalmente. Uno dei primi libri posseduti, veramente un piacere averlo letto
