Read on to learn what makes Epic Fantasy Series Dreams of QaiMaj worth reading!
Three thousand years past, QaiMaj was a utopia of magic and science working together to create a Golden Era--until Baedan, a Maj ruled by greed, madness and selfish motives, destroyed every living thing on the surface of QaiMaj. The only survivors lived deep underground or far under water.
Today, the surface of QaiMaj is an oppressed place where little progress toward civilization has been made by the descendants of the survivors. The Living Memories of the Valley of Gairde hide in the northern mountains, protecting an oasis of life and the weapon that destroyed QaiMaj. The ancient Merreld hide under the sea, blind to the atrocities that haunt the surface. The once-great City of SoJing sits in ruins, it's citizens slaves to the descendants of the very man who destroyed QaiMaj. The Dhuciri, the dark armies commanded by those descendants, patrol every bit of habitable land, demanding a tithe in lives to feed their grotesque powers.
But underground, the future of QaiMaj is stirring. Two kingdoms, their magic bound to ice and fire, vying for supremacy in the underground world, are about to come face to face with their history, and a place their ancestors taught them was only legend. Three women endowed with the power of foresight will change QaiMaj irrevocably--but will they save what life remains, or destroy it utterly?

Fun story set in a well-thought-out world.
By Jomama
I was immediately drawn into this book. It is set in an intricate network of underground caves that house two warring societies, Icers and Flames. The biggest difference between them is that Icers draw their magical power from the cold, while Flames draw theirs from heat. They have similar societies, but they seem to have different values, though their true differences get called into question in the book.
The author changes point of view from chapter to chapter but I was never confused as to which character's eyes I was looking through. From the Ice Princess, Stasia (who wants nothing more than to follow her `Dreams') to Glace (Stasia's human guard who wants nothing more than to protect Stasia) to Dynat (the insane Fire King), to Bolv (Dynat's cool and calculating cousin and `kinyara') the characters are interesting and distinct. Added into this mix are the Khell, a mysterious and seemingly unconnected society of nomads whom we see from the vantage point of one woman, Maia, the tribe's healer.
The end of the book left me satisfied with the story, but also wondering how certain characters had fared and about what was going to happen after the surprising turn of events at the end of the book. I'm looking forward to finding out what happens to everyone in volume two.
I also checked out the author's website and found that she has free short stories about people and customs in the three different societies in the book, as well as maps and drawings of the imaginative animals that live among the Icers, Flames, and Khell.
I'd recommend this book to anyone who likes to be submerged in a thoroughly thought out fantasy world or for anyone who just likes a good story!

Brilliantly Magical
By Samuel Alexander
There are too may great things to say about this book. The plot line is easy to follow yet complex enough to create sufficient depth. It's told through character headings as chapters. Which allows you to be pulled more into the world through the eyes of the characters then just being told what is happening. And it manages to have a secret second plot floating in the background that pics up steam at just the right pace to hit you at the end with that yearning to know where it will lead. Which of course means the ending is also brilliant.
The characters of each chapter heading were very clearly defined. What made them work is that they give the impression of being cliched, the typical warrior in love with the princess, the stubborn princess who has no time for the order of things loaded with i'm almost an adult teenage angst, the usually over cautious best friend of the princess who always takes the safe route. The evil villain bent on destruction at any cost, and of course the I'm evil but my king is just crazy and he'll kill us and the good guys if we don't over throw him general who refuses to accept this truth. However, none of them are really any of these things.
As the plot moves on all of the main characters hit a learning curve. They find out things about themselves and don't squirm away from the realities of it. Those who appear strong end up weak, those who seem weak turn out to have more strength than they knew, and those who thought they had a fair hand in life learn that they are not much different from others they thought less than them. Each character has a journey to go through that is very intricately interlocked with an opposing character.
The rules of each sect, the icers and the flames, are defined in a way that it doesn't come of as a history lesson. Things are learned as we need them. The hints as to what may be going on are calculated to their precise moments that you don't quite figure out where it's actually heading. And most importantly, the route most young adult fiction novels will take this one doesn't. It doesn't shy away from self sacrifice, making the tough decisions, and the glaring truth that in war heroes can die.
And it plays very well the issue of good versus bad when faced with total distraction. What the cost are of annihilating an entire race. And is blood ties actually thicker than water. Can one destroy their own brother or sister or cousin if they new they must in order to gain ultimate power.
In all this book had a clearly defined world. Characters who had their own individual journeys and equal importance in plot of the book. And the author does an excellent job of making you feel the characters and more importantly feel their love and or distaste for the other characters. There is no way you can read this and not get a full spectrum of the importance of why and the understanding of why each character does what they do.
And the ending was brilliant. It was intense yet subtle at the same time and answered with out actually answering what was going on with this sub plot line. And something as subtle as switching from italics to regular print alludes to the fact that this plot line wont be so sub in the next book.
I give this such a high rating because all the things I like in a novel, which is making me feel your characters so much I don't even want the bad guys to die, avoiding the cliches that these types of novels fall into so often, defining the rules of the different sects and explaining how they use their power in a clear and easy to understand way, and most importantly having excerpts or interludes (I am very touchy about these types of things) that when I get to the end I say, yes the book did need them. There is nothing worse than an author putting in these short inserts every couple of chapters and I think if I read the book without them it would be the same. That was not the case with this book.
This was a book that held everything I like about young adult novels with the complexity of the plots of the more adult fare which is what makes reading young adult or new adult so enjoyable. When it hits right in the middle it makes for some of the most fascinating reading you can have. This novel is for any fantasy reader that likes well thought out plots and characters, doesn't shy away from the harsh realities of war and moves at a pace that never bores or leaves you thinking, why why why. It was in one word, brilliant.
And as a side note, in my opinion the character to really watch is Larc. She by far impressed me the most, so much so that in the scene where she finally came into her own I didn't even think it was her. And that is as good as writing can get.

A worthy tale!
By mizztara71
I received a copy of Dream of a Vast Blue Cavern from storycartel.com in exchange for
an honest review.
I have so many high praises for this story. I love the fantasy genre. I was engrossed
from the opening sentence and never once lost interest in the tale. The life of the "Icers"
and the "Flames" were so vivid and detailed that I became entranced in the two worlds.
The story was full of complex characters. There were really good ones such as Glace, Lark and
Princess Stasia. Dynat "The Fire King" was the epitome of evil. Medoc was different, he was
in the grey area between good and evil. I really hated for the story to end, and I will definitely
read the next book.
I would highly recommend this story to any fantasy lover or anyone who is looking for an
interesting read.
