Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1783, an unusual dry fog descended upon large parts of the northern hemisphere. The fog brought with it bloodred sunsets, a foul sulfuric odor, and a host of other peculiar weather events. Inspired by the Enlightenment, many naturalists attempted to find reasonable explanations for these occurrences. Between 8 June 1783 and 7 February 1784, a 27-kilometer-long fissure volcano erupted in the Icelandic highlands. It produced the largest volume of lava released by any volcanic eruption on planet Earth in the last millennium. In Iceland, the eruption led to the death of one-fifth of the population. The jetstream carried its volcanic gases further afield to Europe and beyond, where they settled as a fog, the origin of which puzzled naturalists and laypersons. "A Mist Connection" is an environmental history that documents the Laki eruption and its consequences for Iceland and the wider world. The book combines methods of historical disaster research, climate history, global history, history of science, and geology in an interdisciplinary approach. Icelandic flood lava eruptions of this scale have a statistical recurrence period of 200 to 500 years; it is crucial to understand their nature so that we can prepare for the next one. An eruption of this magnitude would surely be disastrous for our modern, globalized, and interconnected world.

But a fun vacation soon turns into a stormy disaster when her grandfather goes out to sea and doesn’t return. Coralee must rely on the newfound secrets of the sea to save him. Will she do it in time to save his life? Book Review 1: “Very original and captivating story, beautifully written. Through Coralee’s adventures and encounters, kids (and adults) can learn that diversity is something to embrace, rather than being afraid if wat is new and different.” -- Sarah from Treviso, Italy Book Review 2: Mysteries of the Mist is a fantasy and science fiction story for children by C.A. Rand. Coralee spends the summer with her grandfather, Rigger, a lighthouse keeper. While relaxing on the beach, Coralee hears a whimper and investigates. She helps a merling named Mist who’s trapped under a rock. Coralee is repaid for her kindness with a moonstone necklace from the Sea Goddess, Kleenah. It summons the Mermaids of Nereus whenever she needs them. She’s also told never to reveal they exist, or she will be cursed. When Rigger goes sailing and doesn’t return in the stormy weather, a concerned Coralee uses the moonstone to contact the mermaids to save him. Will they be able to rescue her grandfather, or will the wicked sirens do him harm? Mysteries of the Mist is an enchanting story about a teenage girl who loves recreational activities and spending time with her beloved grandfather. C.A. Rand writes expressively, and her love of the sea shows in the scenic descriptions. I’ve learned the differences between sirens and mermaids, and I have always thought lighthouses were special, too. The illustrations are amazing, and so are the characters. Coralee and Mist behave like typical teenagers. The undersea setting is just as lovely as the land scenes. Even the Sea God and Goddess have their problems to solve under the sea. Mysteries of the Mist is a fantasy story and a delightful read for children. -- Michelle Stanley for Readers' Favorite Book Review 3: “Loved it!
