Of Mist and Shadow (The Mist King Book 1)

Product Information

But the mists beyond the realm’s walls are dangerous, ruthless and fascinating…and so is he. As Tessa fights her growing cravings for her, she must make a decision. I’m still confused as to why Oberon has horns etc. and the other fairies were not described as such, including Kalen. All the other questions have more to do with the fact that this book has a lot of cliffhangers. You definitely need to read the next one to get those answers. I know I have characters I want to see again; I love Midnight the Horse and how it was more than it seemed. As always, Jenna credits Wolfhart. It’s an interesting premise and a unique world that developed it. The road in A Walking Song has been seen as a metaphor for destiny and experience for both Bilbo and Frodo that begins at their home Bag End. According to Tom Shippey, the name Bag End is a direct translation of French cul-de-sac meaning a dead end or a road with only one outlet. The journeys of Bilbo and Frodo have been interpreted as such a confined road as they both start and end their respective adventures in Bag End. According to Don D. Elgin, A Walking Song is "a song about the roads that go ever on until they return to at last to the familiar things they have always known." [3] Shore wrote the orchestral accompaniment. The song happens to share the opening perfect fifth interval that opens Shore's Gondor theme (where it is sung in the film) and the melody moves in a stepwise motion in the Dorian mode, much like his Shire themes.

I liked this book so much that I kept reading it. It’s mature enough that I can read it without rolling my eyes, but at the same time something is too obvious… It has all the typical tropes. But I digress. This story begins with a mortal who basically lives in a bubble with others of his kind ruled by fairies, and an evil king (King of Light Oberon) who rules them all through fear. Ralph C. Wood concludes from a Christian point of view that A Walking Song references the inevitable journey towards death and beyond. [4] When the vicious fae king catches Tessa stealing his powerful gemstones, he demands a cruel punishment. She must leave her family and friends behind and become his future human bride. Tessa has never stepped foot inside the glittering fae city until now—and no mortal is allowed. There, things are far more monstrous than she ever dreamed. King Oberon humiliates her, terrorizes her, and threatens those she loves.
