Let's go back in time as you read the excitement on Misty Mountain. This book orginated from the inspiration of love for the mountains in my family. My up-bringing was in the country, in the foothills of Misty Mountain. The people, adventures and experiences of my childhood are not to be forgotten. These experiences were either created by my family or naturally happened. There is a desire to make this a forever memory on paper, with real photographs for future children to see, read and learn from. Even though my real life experiences cannot be matched by today's standards, parents can create adventures for their children. My heart's desire is to make this book a special memory and pass it on.

Valley of the Misty Mountain is Book One of the Kodi Trilogy. When eight-year-old Kodi leaves his coastal village for a hike up Misty Mountain with his grandfather, he imagines they might be back before nightfall. But this is no ordinary journey, and certainly Gardon, his grandfather, is no ordinary person! In Valley of the Misty Mountain, the first book of this exciting trilogy, Kodi and Gardon join with Jalu -- another 'ancient wise one' and friend to Gardon -- and his grandson Kalu. Together, the four must use the Four Lessons and a little magic to escape from a marauding tribe led by the brutal Alcock. The Kodi Trilogy is a coming-of-age journey in which the title character encounters learning situations on his path to becoming 'the one.' Author CHRISTINE BUZZI Born in England with a very active imagination and thirst for adventure, Christine emigrated alone to Australia at the age of 20. There in the outback she met a special someone who later became her husband and father of her two children. Christine is now retired, living on Vancouver Island. Besides the KODI Trilogy, she has also written a novel based on her youthful adventures (think of it as Bridget Jones fumbles through the Australian outback) called Butterfly under a pseudonym.

Young widow Joanna Watson is struggling to make a new home for her five-year-old son, Samuel, in the little mountain town of Settler's Fort. When she returns home from work to find Samuel and the woman watching him missing, with no lawman in town, she enlists a man she prays has enough experience in this rugged country to help. Isaac Bowen wants nothing more than a quiet, invisible life in these mountains, far away from the bad decisions of his past. But he has a strong suspicion of who's behind the kidnapping, and if he's right, he knows all too well the evil they're chasing. As they press on against the elements, Joanna fights to hold on to hope, while Isaac knows a reckoning is coming. They find encouragement in the tentative trust that grows between them, but whether it can withstand the danger and coming confrontation is far from certain in this wild, unpredictable land.
