Under the wise guidance of King Crispin, the animals of Mistmantle have enjoyed a long period of peace and prosperity since the violent Raven War.
The tranquility is disrupted when a series of tidal waves threatens to destroy the island. The inhabitants must quickly move to higher ground to avoid the devastation. But Mossberry, an influential squirrel with delusions of grandeur, sees the impending disaster as an opportunity to rise to power . . . and his reckless decisions will put many citizens in harm's way.
In a race against time, Urchin of the Riding Stars, his page, Corr, and the Circle of King Crispin's court must stop Mossberry and usher the animals of Mismantle to safety. And when a beloved citizen is swept away in the rage tide, the ultimate sacrifice must be made.

Author Interview: M. I. McAllister of The Mistmantle Chronicles
Released in 2024 by Plumfield Moms Podcast
Available formats: Streaming Audio
Length: 1 hrs. 4 min.
This is a re-release of an old favorite: our interview with M. I. (Margi) McAllister of the Mistmantle Chronicles. It has been about two years since this interview aired. The original interview was broken into two episodes. Our new audio engineer (Sara's son Michael) took some time this summer to clean up the sound and trim the interview so that it fits better into just one episode. We hope that you like this lovely interview with the most lovely Margi McAllister.
