Fortress of Mist by Sigmund Brouwer--Book Review

 
Title: Fortress of Mist
Author: Sigmund Brouwer
Series: Merlin's Immortals - Book 2
Pages: 217
Publisher: WaterBrook Press
Genre: Fantasy
My Rating: 4 Stars
 
Summary: [from the back of the book]
 The throne is redeemed, but the battle is just beginning.
 
In the dark corners of an ancient land, evil lurks in the shadows. Powerful druids haunt the spaces of their lost territory. Double-minded noblemen fight for domain and influence. Invaders from the North threaten the kingdom of Magnus.
 
 
My thoughts: Overall, I thought this was a very good book. It continued the story from where book one left off-right before Thomas became the new king of Magnus. It was pretty well written, though a bit shorter than books I am used to reading for YA sometimes.
Also, I found it incredibly confusing trying to remember which girl was who, and if Katherine and Isabelle were on Thomas' side. And if they were still alive or being impersonated. I DO like mysteries in a plot line, but I feel as though this time, it really took away from my enjoyment of the book.
