A dream-filled nightscape like no other, Dream Weaver's Quest: The Labyrinth War by B. Lindstrom is a shockingly sublime, altogether engaging and compelling fantasy novel for young adults. First in a dynamic trilogy, this imaginative epic offers a new twist as to the fine line between what any of us are willing to accept and what we are willing to conquer. For one teen, the realm of slumber is a playground. As a brave Dream Weaver, she is a big part of what the world dreams and what it endures in the way of nightmares, but who we are in our dreams is often vastly different from who we are in real life. While fourteen-year-old Alexandra is asleep, she's a Dream Weaver with special abilities, but when she's awake she's something else entirely. Alex's grandfather warns her that a war is coming in the sleeping realm and that she's destined to become a great leader. Her spirit guide, Randall, further explains that it's up to her to travel to the Botanical Labyrinth to find what's needed to repair the fabric of the dream cloak that protects Lysandra, the guardian of dreams, after Lilith, Empress of Nightmares, damages it. With the help of Sandman, Alex maneuvers the mysterious landscapes of the darkening realm even though Lilith kidnaps her grandfather's waking spirit and holds him suspended between the living and the dead. As the nights grow longer and wearier, Alex will enlist the help of new friends and prove that in any realm-awake or asleep-the greater strength always lies in sharing.
