They move to a small beach town which has more than its share of secrets. The Carver family decides to leave their urban home in Spain to escape the war. The war in Europe plays only a background role in the book, much as it does in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe. The Prince of Mist was his first book, and it did not disappoint. I'd read Zafon's The Name of the Wind, a brilliant adult novel blending Gothic horror and magic realism, but I wasn't aware that Zafon actually began his career writing middle grade fantasies. A big change of pace from my nonfiction reading about World War II, The Prince of Mist is a middle grade novel by acclaimed Spanish writer Carlos Ruiz Zafon.
