Every dream you've ever had, and every dream yet to come, exists somewhere in the Kingdoms of the Void. Every nightmare, too. Because there has to be balance - it's the rules.

It takes an extremely powerful Void wizard like Leanan Kite to keep 'em in check. But right now Kite has other worries, and Nightkeep is growing strong. Its Lords hunger for power. And they've turned their gaze toward Earth... Fast-paced, vividly imagined and blistering with sassy dialogue and humour, teen-sensation Catherine Webb's debut novel is a unique and utterly contemporary fantasy for young adult readers.… (more)

"The lords of Nightkeep plot to ensnare our dreaming souls. Only Leanan Kite can stand up against them; unfortunately, Haven's top-rated, kick-ass mage is kind of tied up, overthrowing false monarchs, wresting back control of the Secret Service and dealing with demonic troops."
Right out of the gate this books hooks you. Not bad for a teenager. Worth the price!!! ( )

The Kingdoms of the Void are created out of dreams, but no all dreams are pleasant, the nightmares have their own place. However nightmares and dreams fight for control of this world and now the forces of Nightkeep have killed the King of Dreams.

Laenan Kite has his own small kingdom. He's happy there, he's used magic and his dreams of our earth to create a paradise for himself, but now he's summoned for the inauguration of the new King.

When he gets to the central kingdom of dreams he finds that there are plots within plots and the safety of Earth is in jeopardy. He has to knock himself out of his retirement and do something, because he has enough power to.

At the end you're not sure about some of the reasons for this world's existence but you're happy you visited.

It's a fun read, nothing particularly demanding, and I was amazed to discover that it had been written by a 14-year-old. I loved Laenan's asides and his attitude to power was refreshing. I will have to look for more titles by this author. ( )
