Promises of Dr. Sigmundus

YA
Promises of Dr. Sigmundus series.
Dante is an orphaned, abused kitchen boy who (illegally) dreams nightly. Beatrice is a doctors' daughter unwilling to take the legally mandated drugs that would make her spiritless. If only they could both leave their home, an asylum in the country of Gehenna. The late introduction of fantastical elements into an otherwise non-magical dystopia muddles this series opener.
