Dragonwatch: A Fablehaven Adventure Volume 1

This is quite a jump from the original Fablehaven series, but undoubtedly a great way to start off a second series! I’m definitely intrigued and probably won’t stop reading until I finish all five books in this second series…

Brandon Mull does not disappoint us with this new book as part of the unforgettable Fablehaven. The story is as exciting as the prequels, as a huge fan of the saga I was worried this would be an unnecessary new realese in order to prolongate a well finished series, but luckily I was wrong, I read the book in 3 days and the only thing I am not happy about is that I will have to wait a year so I can get the sequel.

Ok, so where do I begin with this book? I read the original Fablehaven books as they came out and my 13-year-old self was devastated when the series ended about 7 years ago. Well, after very nearly an eternity and the last of my teenage years being drained away, this book was finally published. I reverted to that 13 year old girl and experienced that same thrill and excitement I did when I first read the original series. Despite being older than the target audience, this book does not fail to please. It's well paced, funny, action-packed, and nail biting. The entire experience is simply riveting. I love reading and have read a lot of books, but I have yet to experience a book that really gives me an actual thrill like these do. The characters are so realistic and relatable that I feel like its hard not to get pulled into the story. Kendra is a strong female character done in a way that doesn't make them emotionless or unlikable, which I've found to be a problem in YA as of late. Seth is a pretty typical 13 year old kid, his antics have not changed since the last books. Maybe pumped up a notch. Loved the book. I can see the set up for the rest of the series and I am liking what I see so far. If you have not read Fablehaven (the books previous to these), I absolutely, highly recommend them. Fun, action packed, and surprisingly deep for their target audience. As for Dragonwatch, I don't think I could have asked for more. This book is just about everything I dreamed of for 7 years. Lots of awesome dragons, cool new magical creatures, and the same old faces that I've grown to miss. 10/10.

Is a very good secuel to the fablehaven series

Una merecida continuación a la franquicia original Fablehaven que tanto tiempo llevaba esperando, no puedo esperar a que salgan las demás.
