Mistbound: How to Glue Back Your Grandpa

Daryl Kho

Can Grandpa be
saved in time before he’s forever lost to the mists within his mind?

Meet
Alexis. Her grandfather’s memories have just been shattered. And it kinda,
sorta was her fault.

The only cure? Memory Glue, of course! To brew it, she’ll just need a
couple of ingredients.

Like, you know, typical everyday stuff- chilli, Grandma’s perfume. And oh,
just a few drops of a Duyung (Sea Siren’s) sweat, and some strands of nose
hair from a nightmare-eating Baku…

OK. Maybe some items won’t be so easily found at your neighbourhood
supermarket.

Nope, to obtain them Alexis must journey to a magical land called Mist,
where the fantastical creatures from her Grandpa’s folktales are alive in the
flesh. As if that weren’t complicated enough, many of those mystical (but no
longer mythical) beasts ? from treacherous tree nymphs (Nangmais) to ravenous
snow ogres (Onis) and despair-bringing smoke horses (Kuderas) ? don’t plan on
making her quest a walk in the park!

To top it off, there’s a deadline. The ingredients must be gathered before
the break of Spring, otherwise it would be too late and Grandpa’s memories
would be lost for good.

Good thing then, that she’s not alone.

With her are two of the unlikeliest travel buddies- the grouchy Kenit
(forest imp) who had cast the fateful memory-zapping spell; and her own
Grandma, who harbours a secret that will change Alexis’ life forever…

Can Grandpa be saved in time before he’s forever lost to the mists within
his mind?
