Book 1 of 2: The Long Dream

See all formats and editions

When Aarin’s father dies, elemental fire answers to human command for the first time in three thousand years. But it is a promise of power that comes with a price. To fulfil his father’s dying wish and restore the lost magic of his world, Aarin must find the masters of that fire – the ancient dragons – who vanished from the world millennia ago, taking their magic with them.

But the world has changed, and when Aarin is confronted by a magic he thought lost forever, he finds himself in conflict with powerful forces intent on preventing the return of the dragons at all costs. And, deadlier still, the machinations of an age-old power that would sacrifice anything to see them returned, even the life of the man they have waited thousands of years to find.

Beset on all sides, Aarin must sort friend from foe and unravel the mysteries of a past long forgotten. To survive, he must discover why the dragons left and what they risked everything to destroy – before it destroys him.

A classic epic fantasy adventure, Silver Mage is the standalone first novel in the Long Dream sequence that concludes with Silver Dawn.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Silver Mage is a complex and multi-layered story charting one man's fate as he attempts to return dragons to his world. It is a beautifully told tale made up from all the ingredients that make fantasy so special: larger-than-life (yet realistic) characters, magic, dragons, battles, intrigue, love and betrayal. Silver Mage is epic fantasy at its best." - Fantasybookreview.co.uk

Very enjoyable read!

It's been awhile since I've been so disappointed that there was not a sequel. Well written story with nicely developed characters. I read the Kindle version and there were some grammatical errors but nothing that took away from the overall reading experience. If you're a fan of epic fantasy, this is a good read.

Enjoyable quest

Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2019

Overall good read. The fantasy world with its dragon lore and magic components. The youth who accepts the quest and finds companions along the way. The epic battle of good vs evil forces. Characters that you come to care about.
The story is refreshingly clean and not overly "bloody" so it's appropriate for younger readers. A few grammatical/spelling errors like someone saved my live (life), but no big deal. The author's explanation of the history/background in the beginning chapters was a tad confusing, but it made better sense if one kept reading. It's a tale that one looks forward to reading and like others, a sequel would be wonderful!

Fun Read. Well Written. Needs Editing.

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed this book although it starts slow and builds slowly, but once going, it is a fun read with enough action to keep your attention. The characters are dynamic and interesting. And if you want a long read, this is it. It is essentially three books in one and should keep your attention to the end if you can get by the first part, which starts out slow.

My main problem is that it needs a good editor. The editing mistakes grow more frequent as you read, and since it is really three books in one, by the last book, I found a lot of errors that became very distracting. I certainly would have given this book a higher rating if it wasn't for all the distractions. In once case, the wrong character was mentioned, which threw me for a loop and I had to re-read the passage four or five times to figure out which character the author really meant. Not cool.

Family Friendly?

I'd have to rate this PG-13. There are blunt descriptions of blood and gore, minor profanity sprinkled throughout the book, one or two attempts at rape (which were foiled), a couple instances of casual fornication, but no overt descriptions of sex or nudity.

Blacksmithing of hearts and dreams

A woven tale of hearts that must face themselves in all their strengths and limits. Well developed relationships and characters, living in a world of magic reborn. OK for young adults.

A World to Immerse You.

Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2019

Verified Purchase

So much more than I expected. In the depth of storytelling, this author soars above and beyond imagination. In a league with ARAGON in world building with intrigue, love, war, sorrow, joy and pain. I fall in love with Dragon lore and it's magic again. I have not yet looked to see, but I truly hope that the sequel is waiting when I close this review. The ending of this book was satisfying, but it definitely is not the end of the story!

Great characterisation and not the average good v. Evil storyline. First class description of the lands and the suffering. Debell is not someone I have read before but will certainly follow now.

Not a bad story; well worth the read. The plot twists and turns but ultimately comes back to where I thought it would go. The characters are well worth investing in and what happens to each is mostly surprising. I would recommend but it can be a struggle in places.
