Critic reviews

"The Fablehaven series is generating buzz as a contender in the fantasy-adventure genre to replace the Harry Potter franchise." ( Hollywood Reporter)

"Like Harry Potter, Fablehaven can be read aloud in a family with as much pleasure for grownups as for children." (Orson Scott Card)

"Featuring plenty of heroism and hilarity, Fablehaven is rich in creatures, magic-working, and hard-fought battles." ( Kirkus Reviews)

We Loved It

My 8 & 6.5 yr old have been loving this series.l! We are in the car a lot and it has been a great series read by a very talented narrator.

Love the Fablehaven Books

The Fablehaven books and many other books by Brandon Mull have been favourites of mine since I was younger and now rereading them again they are just as good if not better than I remember them!

The shadow men

I really enjoyed the the dragon and I think the quiet box I think that Vanessa should be able to be out in the morning but she has to go back in the quiet box at night

loved it!

We love how the story is unfolding. It definitely gets more intense, there are more deaths in this book, so folks with younger ones be aware. Fantastic story!

A amazing book

This is another great book from the Fablehaven series. I have read it a lot, but it never seems to get less interesting. I think this is one of Brandon Mull’s best yet. As to the narrating, superb, E. B. Stevens makes the best little voices for each and every character.

Amazing

The story was a bit scary otherwise I love it.
P.S. this is from a 10 year old kid
