Product Description
Kelsey Cafferty has been dead for seven years, or so her sister Regan believes. That is until a stranger, with a birthmark of a blue flame, shows up on her doorstep and informs Regan that he is a mage, and that she must come with him to save his world, Daradawn and her sister, Kelsey.

The Blue Flame
Rating (5)
Date: 2007-07-14
The Blue Flame is the first book in the Daradawn Series. This book introduces the reader to Daradawn. Daradawn is an alternate dimensional world filled with magic, elves, dwarves, dragons, and unicorns. As the story starts, the reader meets Kelsey Cafferty, her allies, and her enemies.
Kelsey Cafferty is not originally from Daradawn. She is actually a photographer from our world, a former resident of San Francisco. Kelsey had accidentally stumbled upon a magical gateway from our world to Daradawn seven years earlier. Kelsey had stayed in this magical world to lead as Queen's Commander to fight the evil Dirkk. With the ongoing threat by Dirkk and his allies, Kelsey needs help that only her sister Regan can provide. Unfortunately, Regan is still in San Francisco and Kelsey has to wait until the gateway from Daradawn to our world reopens, for seven days once every seven years.
The Blue Flame is a beautifully written action filled fantasy adventure. The author brings the land of Daradawn, the magic, the adventure, and all of its inhabitants to life in full color. The reader can't help but be completely drawn into this world.

THE BLUE FLAME - Believable Fantasy
Rating (5)

"The Blue Flame" is an excellent story, one that holds the reader's interest right up to the last page. The well-developed characters are true-to-life, and the descriptions of Daradawn and life there are so realistic that you wonder if the author might not have paid a visit to that world. I recommend this book highly and am awaiting with great anticipation another tale that will take me back to Daradawn.

I enjoyed The Blue Flame very much. It is the first fantasy novel I have read. Along with the characters we learn of magic, and how it must be controlled. I highly recommend the book. It is fast paced and once you start reading you do not want to put it down. The Blue Flame would make an outstanding movie.
