Product Description

Product Description

"Whisper Mountain is the lair of the beast," say the frightened mountain elves. "Beware the Shadow Demon, for it will hunt you down and eat you alive."

Hal and his friends weren't looking for another adventure, but this was a mission they couldn't ignore.

Whisper Mountain gets its name from the frequent cries of ghosts echoing down its slopes, the souls of victims who have run afoul of the demon. Who in their right mind would venture into the deserted elfin temple? But, according to a crazy old soothsayer, the mountain is the "key to everything."

Miss Simone agrees that the mountain is worth investigating, but has more immediate problems to deal with: a squad of soldiers from Hal's old world has been spotted coming through the 'hole' in the labyrinth. Will this lead to a friendly integration of virus survivors, or an industrialized, technologically advanced human invasion that threatens the land forever?

The shapeshifters set off to the mountain, hoping all this talk of demons and ghosts is just superstitious nonsense. What they find there surprises everybody...

The Trilogy Concludes 14 Oct 2010
Format:Paperback
Initially thinking that this title - the third in Keith Robinson's Island of Fog trilogy - was just more of the same, it soon developed into another thumping good read. Although the third in the trilogy, more books featuring the bunch of kids that we have grown to relate to and like were hinted at. A great end to the trilogy, and strongly recommended.

I Love This Series 25 Sep 2011
By Roger Eschbacher - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
The third book in the "Island of Fog" series, "Mountain of Whispers" continues author Keith Robinson's tradition of telling an entertaining tale with style and aplomb. Taking place exclusively on the "other side" of the doorway between our world and the next, we follow the adventures of shapeshifter Hal and his friends as they struggle to fill their proper roles as liaisons to groups of strange creatures such as ogres, centaurs, naga, and elves. Throw in a threat from heavily-armed soldiers from "our side" and you've got a recipe for an exciting story. At the time of this writing the next book, "Lake of Spirits", has just been released and I'm very much looking forward to reading it.
Wonderful! - I truly love this series 19 Sep 2010
By Torch Under The Blanket Books - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Mountain of Whispers is book 3 from the Island of Fog series. Book 1 Island of Fog. Book 2 Labyrinth of Fire.

Once again we join Hal and his friends as they are sent on another mission that only they, with their special talents, can complete. Hal, his friends and their families have had little time to settle into their new home when their new world comes under attack. If the young friends can solve a 15 year old mystery, they may just save everyone in this new world and those few survivors left in the old.

A terrible secret has been revealed to one of the friends when they looked into a magic glass ball. The truth of what caused the death of millions in their old world is horrible. The revelation is so shocking it could cause fragile alliances to crumble. With their new home under threat of invasion, the alliances are more important now than ever. Hal and his shapeshifting friends are needed to secure the alliances and bring help to repel the invaders.

Planning is interupted when an old soothsayer arrives. His predictions are generally dismissed but something in what he says makes sense to the friends and lines up with what was revealed in the glass ball. They convince the leaders to let them investigate the soothsayer's ravings on their way to gather allies. So, armed only with their shapeshifting abilities, the friends leave to solve the mystery of The Mountain of Whispers.

Keith Robinson has wielded his special kind of magic again and this book is just as wonderful as the first two. The books are packed full of adventure and fun but also deliver some serious messages. For example, they promote teamwork and respect of others; they explore environmental issues and disasters; and demonstrate the complex issue of integration, immigration and race relations. There are so many reasons why these books should be on every school list. So many big messages but you never feel like you're being preached to. Keith has a beautiful style of writing that sweeps you along effortlessly. I hope Keith keeps adding to this series because I for one am not ready to put it down.

Thank you Keith Robinson.
Mountain of Twisters 19 Aug 2010
By Brian W Beck - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
So I've read the first and second books in this children's series. Island of Fog, the first is a conceptually innovative and intriguing story which demanded a follow up. Labyrinth of Fire was such a book. You know the feeling when you watch a great movie and everyone is happy and all is well... but you wished you could see what happened after... but you know it's just a story and the characters disappear with the closing credits? This is like that. Labyrinth of Fire is a superb expansion of the narrative lifeline.

Mountain of Whispers, the third novel continues the story and delivers on its promise - danger, thrills, conflict, growth and resolution in abundance capturing the feeling of the created world's environment so well that you really feel the dust, fear, pain and relief! Some books capture the landscape and the smells and the emotion and succeed in bringing you into their world. This is what I love about these stories.

One minor criticism is that sometimes the action is so fast, the writing barely keeps up with the frenzy of activity that I know the author sees in his imagination. There are some plot issues like the crane which fell into place a little too easily and a few others that I'll not spoil. This is unlike the first book which is painstakingly perfectionist in its treatment of plot continuum and explanations. On the other hand, it's good to see some pieces of plot from the previous books fall nicely into place. All in all, a fun and rewarding read. Reading the previous books is mandatory.
