Detective fiction is one of the most popular genres in classical literature. And of course, the action can take place in a fantasy world.
Detective fiction may place its primary emphasis on the detective plot itself. At the same time, the fantasy world can simply act as a background that slightly diversifies the standard setting. Well, the magic or technology present in the world will add additional opportunities to both the investigator and the criminals he is looking for.
The detective storyline can also only be one of the storylines. And then the hero, in between epic battles and deciding the fate of the world, will solve riddles and try to investigate inexplicable incidents. This adds variety to the plot and prevents the reader from getting bored.
Most often, the main character of the book acts as an investigator who unravels the detective plot. Sometimes with the help of your abilities and knowledge, sometimes - simply thanks to your attentiveness and your own mind.
Sometimes the main character takes part in events that are controlled by another character. Moreover, neither the hero nor the reader even guess until the very end who their opponent is and what goals he wants to achieve.
Fans of classic detective stories may be attracted to such books by their non-standard surroundings, unusual plot developments and a fresh look at familiar things. Even a person who has not read science fiction before may want to continue getting acquainted with fantasy worlds.
For fans of science fiction, a detective plot will help them take a break from the description of epic battles, adventures and character development. Well, intrigue, which is the basis of any detective story, will additionally fuel interest in reading the book to the end and finding all the clues.

Pekhov Alexey – Master of Dreams
Author: Alexey Pekhov
Sleep is something we need constantly. A person can live without food for a month, without water for a week; if he is completely deprived of sleep, he goes crazy on the fifth day and dies. In the world of dreams, the laws of morality, human society and the state do not apply. Sleep is not limited in space and time; a minute here easily stretches to a year, and a month is compressed to a second. It is limitless and eternal, capturing entire continents, universes and millennia. Capable of crumbling at the touch of a butterfly's wing, and the loudest scream cannot destroy it.
In dreams we are helpless and omnipotent. Monsters and the most beautiful creatures lurk in it. This is a time of relaxation, brilliant discoveries, dreams come true, unimaginable nightmares, pleasure, illusions, healing, peace, death.
Neither people, nor animals, nor gods can resist his power...

Countries are like people. Any person can become a victim of a criminal, no matter whether he is good or bad. Any country can become a victim of aggression.

You can give up, you can say that the enemy is strong and it is useless to resist him. Or you can decide to fight back. And win.
