Age Level: 8 and up | Series: Mistmantle Chronicles

A baby girl has just been born to King Crispin and Queen Cedar.  She is Catkin, the heir to the throne of Mistmantle.  Everyone on the island gathers for the joyful celebration of the Naming Ceremony.  But that night, the princess suddenly disappears.  Urchin and all the brave captains are dispatched to bring her back.  All clues point to her caretaker Linty, a mother squirrel who had gone mad with grief because of a tragedy that occurred during Husk’s evil reign.  The islanders fall further into crisis as a mysterious illness takes hold and begins to spread.  Tensions peak as strange sightings are reported—could it be that Husk is still alive?

I haven't personally read this but my two children LOVE the series. My son is 14 and my daughter is 11. They are both almost done reading the 3rd book and hope there will be more. I think I will read them when I get some time since they like the story so much. They say it's very exciting with lots of twists and turns.

I have now read all four in the Mistmantle series and I loved every one, I was first intrigued by the wonderful cover art and was soon captured by the story. Urchin and his friends have many adventures fighting for the safety and the goodness of their life. There is always Hope and HEart throughout their story. I can't wait for the next Mistmantle

I love this series! I would compare it to the books by Brian Jacques but with a great spiritual underpinning. It is also similar to the Narnian Chronicles, but not as allegorical.
