Mistlight by J.A. Andrews

medium-paced

5.0

Mistlight by J.A. Andrews is the second book in the Aenigma Lights series.

While I liked book one, book two is the one that hooked me body and soul. It took me a bit to get as connected to these characters as I did with the authors previous series, but now I am fully addicted.

I simply love the magic in this world, and seeing more of the classsic style fantasy races like elves and dwarves. Andrews manages to give me that familiar feeling, while still having a fresh tone and voice.

The banter and humour is balanced well with character growth, betrayals and hard decisions.
The found family, friendships and loyalties are simply addictive, and I wish I was part of this ragtag team of different people!

While I like grimdark as much as cosy fantasy, I sometimes wish the middle ground, that is neither just bleak, nor too easy or shallow. J.A. andrews series scratch that itch perfectly, and I can't wait to read more about these characters and setting!
