Ever wondered why the stuff everyone calls fantasy is so near to what they also call reality? Ever wonder exactly how they tell female Fromborks from males? Ever seen visions in your mind that later make a reappearance in reality? Been to a foreign country that still possesses the magic of old?

Even if you haven’t, there is still a chance to experience this and more in the Jack Flanders Series. Through the eyes of a hero who is still trying to meet the standards of one, travel through worlds both mental and physical, known to some and unknown to others, meet individuals from the dreams of humanity and creatures from the dark side of paradise.

Jack Flanders embarked on his first quest in 1972, in the 4^th Tower of Inverness. Since then, he has traveled to Morocco, Rio de Janeiro, the heart of the Amazon, India, the Invisible Worlds, the Forbidden City of Ah-Ha, Sumatra, Bali, and many more realms bordering the edge of reality. Through experiences humorous and tragic, impossible and credible.

Though the original series never had a definite name (except for the Jack Flanders Series), it progressed without a hitch until 1992, after Dreams of Rio. Thus beginnith Travels With Jack, a series of short, two-cassette adventures with the one-and-only Jack Flanders, all with titles worded thusly: "Dreams of (blank)," obviously a follow-up on Dreams of Rio. The "blank" in the titles was filled with The Amazon, India, Bali and Sumatra. After hearing the outrageous overflow of possible ideas for the next "Dreams of" series, it is clear that Dreams of Sumatra is the last in the Travels series. But take heart, this is NOT the end of the Jack Flanders Series.

Though not part of the Travels With Jack series, the two adventures following Dreams of Sumatra take up two cassettes (or CDs), and unlike the Travels series, both spend the majority of time in invisible worlds, and both are, in some parts, exceedingly silly. But it’s still Jack we’re talking about here, right?

Robert Lorick, the only actor to fill Jack’s shoes, has voiced him for nearly 30 years as of this date. You can tell it’s been that long, since in the series following The Incredible Adventures of Jack Flanders, his voice drops a couple of octaves, making him sound more "maturish" in these crazy little adventures. This could be because of advancements in audio technology that make recordings more distinct, but that has little effect on the listener. It’s still as good as it was in ’72, maybe better...
