Dry and wicked, R3 takes us on a gripping metaphysical journey, to distant and mysterious dream worlds, to the dark subconscious, and into the ultimate trip. Set in a world where people have lost the ability to dream, menial John Hammond finds one of the last remaining bottles of the highly craved and coveted R3 - a synthesized beverage that provides the consumer with a set of recycled dreams. During a night out, fueled by chaotic dreams, John encounters Nina, a beautiful girl with striking, kaleidoscopic eyes, whom he feels he shares a strong connection with. After this encounter, John gets pulled into a whirlpool of destructive events, accelerating beyond his control. He can no longer distinguish reality from fantasy. What is real? What's in his subconscious mind? And ultimately, what can he truly classify as real? As R3 distorts his reality, everyone around him gets sucked into his all-consuming dream-world; his erratic mother who slowly becomes a vicious creature, younger than himself; his drug dealer, a new-age, Chinese man who deteriorates as he gives birth to a hypnotic religion; his dead, psychotic landlord who lives in his apartment and walks on his ceiling; the doctor who shares with him more than a name; and finally, John himself, who can't help but continually decay, falling apart at the seams; all unraveling into parallel timelines, slowly getting pulled into a single, lawless reality.

DRUGS. TEENS. AND SUPERPOWERS. Meet "E". She's fourteen. Lives in New York City. Forced to sells drugs by her brute of a father and supplier, E wants out. Yet at four foot ten, E is powerless. Hoping to find an exit, she uses her wit to steal "Lumen", a mysterious new drug that gives the user unimaginable superpowers. Yet there's more to Lumen's power than E had bargained for. Mysterious abilities suddenly unlock within her, along with a lust for power she hadn't foreseen. As events spiral out of her control, E will find herself repeatedly cornered, putting her life, and the life of those she loves, at risk. In a world where the biggest, fastest, and strongest always wins, E will be forced to do the two things she does best: adapt and survive.
