Across the Sea

By J.M. Hofer

Book Overview

Nine moons have passed since the devastating battle against the cauldron-born.

In exile along the sea, Cerridwen gives birth to her supernatural child. Upon beholding his sublime radiance, she is unable to kill him, as she'd vowed to do. Instead, she casts him adrift, leaving his fate in the hands of the Great Mother.

Bran convinces the survivors of the battle to gather their families and live under his leadership as one clan. They settle near the Sacred Grove and take the Oak as their new sigil.

Lucia has returned to the isle to train among the Sisterhood, but Bran has not forgotten her. Once the new settlement is well-established, he asks her to return and be his queen, leaving her with a difficult choice to make - will she abandon her training, or ignore her heart?

All of their destinies intertwine, leading them on challenging paths that border otherworldly realms.

Across the Sea

I had the pleasure in reading the first book from the Islands in the Mist series, also, titled Islands in the Mist. I was exciting to have the opportunity to read the second installment called, Across the Sea. I was far from being disappointed. It was great catching up with Bran once again and seeing what was happening to him and his people were now. I admit that I am not a huge fan of the fantasy genre, however, this story had me captivated and it was a nice change to read something new and different. The book was full of action, danger, suspense, and romance. I loved every single minute of it. I had the pleasure of listening to the audio version of Across the Sea. I loved the performance of the narrator, John Keating, was superb. I enjoyed hearing his take on the story and thought it was a wonderful addition to it. I am going to give Across the Sea a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who love to read exciting and adventurous fantasy fiction. I am looking forward to read the next installment from the Islands in the Mist series, Rise of the Pendragon. I am curious to see what happens next with J M Hofer's characters. I received an audio version of J M Hofer's Across the Sea from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
