“S. P. Kumar's first novel, Cave of Mystic Dreams, will impress you in its own right, and even more so when you discover that its author is a 12-year-old middle-school student. Kumar introduces us to a world of adventures as we witness the trio of young protagonists travel to a parallel world to pursue a quest that has been forced upon them.
While always aware of certain powers they possessed, Claire, Jason, and Zac did not understand why until they were plucked from their ordinary lives to aid in a fight against evil which they little understand. Armed with little more than their unusual talents and keen intellects, the three young friends have a surprising amount of acumen and fortitude to forge ahead even when confronted with seemingly impossible tests and challenges.
Despite the other worldly fantasies of monsters, magic, potions, and special powers, the emotions and moral dilemmas they share are poignant and will ring true not only to middle-school readers but also to adventure and fantasy fans of all ages. Kumar is a natural storyteller, and her richly drawn characters and intriguing setting will delight all who enter her mystical world.”
