People bring an end to magic, while trees and streams and mountainsĪnd animals - left to their own devices - live and breathe magic.Ĭharacters and places from previous books that intersect with the story of INTO THE MISTĪlexa Daley - The heroine and main character of the Elyon trilogy. Into the Mist will lead you through The Land of Elyon at a time when people were less common in wild places and thus magic roamed more freely. There are dozens of other important characters and places in the lore of Elyon that are not included here, but in truth you need not be concerned with these other details in order to find yourself on a firm footing at the beginning of Into the Mist. I offer them as a point of reference, should you become confused at some point in the story. She has left her home in search of a new adventure, one that she doesn't understand, and it is Into the Mist that provides the answer she seeks.Ĭertain characters and places are introduced in the Elyon trilogy which would be useful for you to be aware of before beginning Into the Mist. At the end of the Elyon trilogy Alexa has left The Land of Elyon on the Warwick Beacon, a boat captained by the narrator of Into the Mist, Roland Warvold. Indeed, the main story of Into the Mist takes place within The Land of Elyon, though it begins somewhere else: on the Lonely Sea. The Land of Elyon is an island with towering cliffs on all sides, and it is here that nearly our entire story occurs. This was a time when the land was more magical and unstable. Into the Mist begins shortly after The Tenth City, but most of it takes place a generation before Alexa was even born. When Alexa is able to overcome the walls that surround her, she travels far and wide and discovers a land caughtīetween the forces of good and evil. The first three books in The Land of Elyon series - The Dark Hills Divide, Beyond the Valley of Thorns, and The Tenth City - form a trilogy, chronicling the adventures of a young girl, Alexa Daley, in and around the walled cities of Bridewell Common. If, on the other hand, you are a reader who is new to The Land of Elyon, this introduction is a perfectly reasonable place to begin. If you are fulfilling my first hope, then I'm afraid this introduction may be of little use to you - unless of course you've forgotten some or all of what you've already read, in which case I encourage you to read on! The second is that Into the Mist will introduce new readers to the adventures and mysteries to be had in The Land of Elyon. The first is that many existing readers have come along for a glimpse into the storied past of two beloved characters: Thomas and Roland Warvold. I have two hopes as I begin telling the tale of Into the Mist. And with special thanks to Craig Walker and David Levithan, who let me wander far and wideįinding them with open arms on my return is what made this book possible.
