A stunning fantasy adventure sure to please fans of the original Everflame series and new readers alike. Both ageless and relevant to our time, Everflame: Mystic Wild is a must read. • • • My name is ARTHUR KAGE and I have a secret: I spent a month in the forbidden forest the other survivors call the NULLWOOD. ANNA says the Nullwood appeared the night the skies fell, the night we call the Demise. Anna uses a wheelchair, but she’s the strongest person I’ve ever met. She has a secret, too; a friend who is a fox but… is so much more. I help her keep her secret, and she helps me keep mine. The other survivors would kill me if they knew I had been in the Nullwood. Monsters come out of there. Everyone is afraid of that black forest, and fear makes people dangerous. I don’t have many memories of the Demise, except it’s the last I saw my mother. I can’t remember being in the Nullwood either, except for what I see when I dream. In dreams, I see a shadow bear amid the gnarled black trees, and I see a mysterious flame. I don’t know what any of it means but… I have to find my mother. I have to go back into the Nullwood.
Dylan Lee Peters does it again! He wrote another book I could not put down. I don't know if there was a character in this book that I didn't like. In some way I associated with them all in different ways. The struggles internally and externally that these characters go through are moving, exciting, and impactful. Well written with wonderful imagery and form!
