As Alexa begins to unravel the truth about what lies outside the protective barrier she's lived behind all her life, she discovers a strange and ancient enchantment. Armed with an unexpected power, Alexa exposes a danger that could destroy everything she holds dear—and change The Land of Elyon forever.Â

Before the walls went up... there were adventures. Follow young Thomas Warvold and his brother as they journey through Elyon, discovering new mysteries, new challenges, and new magical creatures that will change the course of their fate... and the fate of their land.
From a humble and unexplained childhood in a very strange orphanage to a series of fearless escapes to a quest full of riddles and exploration, Thomas and Roland find that their identity–and the mysterious tattoos on their knees—are linked to a much greater history than they ever would have guessed. One brother, Thomas, is destined for adventure on land, while the other brother, Roland, is destined for adventure on sea. But before this happens, they must journey into the mist... and find the truth about both their past and their future.
Book Number: Four (Note: This book is a continuation of the series and a prequel. This book is a story told by Roland to Alexa. It advances the plot line and gets you ready for the next book, Stargazer. This book should be read before Stargazer in order to get the full understanding and enjoyment out of the rest of the series.)Â

When we last we saw Alexa Daley, she had defeated a threat in her homeland and was sailing with Roland Warvold across the Lonely Sea. She had no idea what adventures awaited her... until now.
After a tragic attack by an evil force, Alexa and her friend Yipes are stranded in a strange community known as The Five Pillars. Each pillar of rock has its own secrets and its own challenges. As darkness descends, Alexa must risk everything to defeat it... even if it means taking to the skies.
Book Number: Five (Note: This book is actually book five in the series. I know the cover says book four, but if you didn't read the previous book, Into the Mist, you wouldn't get the full enjoyment out of this book. I highly recommend that you read this series in the order listed on this site.)Â
