4.6 Stars (110 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Teen & Young Adult

FREE for a limited time

A lonely, foggy island is home to eight families. Twelve-year-old Hal and his friends have always wondered what happened all those years ago on the mainland, that unseen place Out There beyond the fog, and after an astonishing discovery in the woods the children are more determined than ever to find out what their parents are hiding. But their lives are turned upside down when Abigail reveals her closely guarded secret. According to her, the children are slowly changing into monsters! Are they freaks of nature, or subjects of a sinister experiment?

Each child reacts differently to his or her unique monstrous transformation; after all, one may feel proud to be a dragon, faerie, or centaur, but who in their right mind wants to be a sadistic manticore or cowardly harpy?

Labyrinth of Fire (Island of Fog, Book 2)
Keith Robinson
4.9 Stars (29 Reviews)
Genre: Teen & Young Adult

Hal Franklin and his friends have made it safely into Miss Simone’s world. As shapeshifters, some of them are looking forward to meeting their alternate kind. But others dread the prospect.

Dewey, for instance, quickly feels the pressure of being a centaur. Meanwhile, Lauren and Hal are quaking in their shoes. The village in the north is under constant attack from harpies and dragons, and these vicious creatures must somehow be reasoned with and persuaded not to plunder and steal, and most importantly, not to eat humans! The trouble is, neither harpies nor dragons are interested in negotiating.

Hal and his friends join forces to deal with these serious issues. They end up in the heart of dragon country, down in the Labyrinth of Fire beneath an oozing volcano. Somehow they must make the dragons see the error of their ways. Their quest forces them to question the extent of their shapeshifting abilities… and this leads to a shocking discovery that is likely to start a war.

Mountain of Whispers (Island of Fog, Book 3)
Keith Robinson
5.0 Stars (26 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Teen & Young Adult

“Whisper Mountain is the lair of the beast,” say the frightened mountain elves. “Beware the Shadow Demon, for it will hunt you down and eat you alive.”

Hal and his friends weren’t looking for another adventure, but this was a mission they couldn’t ignore.

Whisper Mountain gets its name from the frequent cries of ghosts echoing down its slopes, the souls of victims who have run afoul of the demon. Who in their right mind would venture into the deserted elfin temple? But, according to a crazy old soothsayer, the mountain is the “key to everything.”

Miss Simone agrees that the mountain is worth investigating, but has more immediate problems to deal with: a squad of soldiers from Hal’s old world has been spotted coming through the ‘hole’ in the labyrinth. Will this lead to a friendly integration of virus survivors, or an industrialized, technologically advanced human invasion that threatens the land forever?

The shapeshifters set off to the mountain, hoping all this talk of demons and ghosts is just superstitious nonsense. What they find there surprises everybody…

Lake of Spirits (Island of Fog, Book 4)
Keith Robinson
4.7 Stars (18 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Teen & Young Adult

“So that’s it for her?” Simone said, unable to contain the wave of bitterness. “She’s one of the lost?”

Jolie was just a one-year-old baby, part of an experimental shapeshifter program in Simone’s world, when she turned into a jengu (one of the miengu water spirits) and stuck in that form. Faced with raising a creature they knew little about, the scientists had no choice but to hand Jolie over to others of her kind, the mysterious people of the lake.

Sixteen years later, Simone is busy introducing the next generation of shapeshifters to their new home. Hal and his friends are settling in at school when it occurs to Simone that, with the help of Abigail’s little glass faerie ball and its ability to unlock deep-seated memories and abilities, she might be able to bring Jolie back into the human world. It’s said that the miengu can heal the sick, and Jolie would be an invaluable asset to have around – that is, if her enchanting beauty and mischievous ways don’t escalate into disaster.

This is a tale of paranoia, betrayal, and impending doom. Like sirens luring ships onto rocks, Jolie seems sweet-natured at first… but Hal and his friends slowly discover that there’s more to her than meets the eye. Can they figure her out before the proverbial ship smashes itself to bits?

Roads of Madness (Island of Fog, Book 5)
Keith Robinson
4.7 Stars (18 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Teen & Young Adult

Emily Stanton was sick. They all knew it was a matter of time before she became too sick to walk, and after that — well, it didn’t bear thinking about. Walking into the night was their only option. The sickness was worsening by the hour, and by morning she might not be able get to her feet. They had to make it to safety soon. But where was it safe? The city? Their old island?

Roads of Madness pits Hal and his friends against an enemy worse than dragons — people! But not just ordinary people. Driven crazy by a terrible, unseen infection more than a decade before, and eking out a semblance of life in the bleak, deserted streets ever since, the only way for these people to survive is to hunt and scavenge. Their skin still burns and itches after all these years, a suffering that just won’t end. The biosuited military calls them scrags. Marked by lesions and scars, they’re easy to recognize… and best avoided.

Hal, Robbie, Abigail, and a very sick Emily know their island is farther along the coast, just beyond the city. There they hope to find a way back home. But they have a long road to travel; the city stands in their way and Emily might not last that long, for she carries with her a sickness of a different kind. Could things be any more dire?

Unfortunately, yes. Under normal circumstances, the journey would be fairly simple. As dangerous as the scrags are, they’re no match for a fire-breathing dragon, an ogre, and a naga. And there’s no way they could catch a nimble faeire! But magic has fled the land after the recent phoenix rebirth, and the shapeshifters find they can no longer transform…

The first three books of the series formed a trilogy, a three-part story that wrapped up at the end of Mountain of Whispers. Then Lake of Spirits started a new chain of events for the shapeshifters and left some of the children in a terrible situation. ROADS OF MADNESS continues the story…

Chamber of Ghosts (Island of Fog, Book 6)
Keith Robinson
4.8 Stars (17 Reviews)
Genre: Fantasy | Teen & Young Adult

All the magic in the region has been nullified by the phoenix rebirth, and without magic, shapeshifters are as ordinary as the village folk. But to the east, outside the blast zone, lies Bad Rock Gulch where goblins mine for geo-rocks. This place has a cavern deep underground known as the Chamber of Ghosts where the shapeshifters might be able to replenish their magic — to recharge.

The chamber is said to be haunted, and it’s here that Hal Franklin receives a warning that his life is in danger. What unfolds changes Hal’s perspective on everything he knows, and he soon finds himself alone, trying his best to persuade Miss Simone and even his friends to see things his way. Set on a course of action that the others think is foolhardy and dangerous, he’s plagued by doubt but resolves to see it through no matter what.

With mountain trolls, a village of werewolves, underground ghosts, a boy from Miss Simone’s past, and a trio of thundering helicopters carrying a cargo that will change the world, the sixth book in the series literally goes out with a bang.
