This is a quiet, slow story. There's no surprises here--the title gives away the ending from the start. The mist will be bridged, and Kit will be the one to do it. Valo's death was so heavily foreshadowed that I called it from the moment Kit suggested he go to university. But sometimes it's nice to ...
