Why read it?

1 author picked The Treasure of the Isle of Mist as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The description, however, doesn’t do the book justice. It’s a short but enchanting read that left me smiling. I wish more people knew about it, because I think it would rank high in the list of fantasy literature.
