Publisher's summary

For centuries, mystical creatures of all description were gathered to a hidden refuge called Fablehaven to prevent their extinction. The sanctuary survives today as one of the last strongholds of true magic in a cynical world. Enchanting? Absolutely. Exciting? You bet. Safe? Well, actually, quite the opposite...

Kendra and her brother Seth have no idea their grandfather is the current caretaker of Fablehaven. Inside the gated woods, ancient laws give relative order among greedy trolls, mischievous satyrs, plotting witches, spiteful imps, and jealous fairies. However, when the rules get broken, an arcane evil is unleashed, forcing Kendra and Seth to face the greatest challenge of their lives. To save her family, Fablehaven, and perhaps the world, Kendra must find the courage to do what she fears most.

Critic reviews

"The dialogue snaps and sizzles... Like Harry Potter, Fablehaven can be read aloud in a family with as much pleasure for grownups as for children... Do yourself a favor, and don't miss the first novel by a writer who is clearly going to be a major figure in popular fantasy." (Orson Scott Card, New York Times Bestselling Author)
"Imagination runs wild in Fablehaven. It is a lucky book that can hold this kind of story." (Obert Skye, Author of Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo)

I like the narrator I also like The book it's good for a starter book. But it could have been a tiny bit better period I'm so happy that he made this series because it brought me into the world of books well audiobooks. Everybody's mean to the narrative.

Not your average fantasy novel

The book is great!! I love the comedy and spookiness. My favorite part is Mid Summers Eve. My least favorite part is that some kids would get scared listening to this, sadly😢. E.B. Stevens does a great performance ( Even though most people don’t like him, which I don’t understand?!😕) Thank you for reading through this review, made sure to read and/or listen to this!!😘
