Fablehaven, Book 1

De: Brandon Mull

Narrado por: E. B. Stevens

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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"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)

Love this book!

I have really enjoyed this series. It’s a great series for a family listen. I was a little annoyed by the cadence of the narrator at first, but I promptly forgot about that. It’s a great story with fun characters. There’s definitely a good combo of fantasy and humor.

So much fun

This is a very well done book and I’m very excited to listen to book 2 and the voice acting was so good it had great emotion and really told you what these characters were saying and how they said it overall very good

Wonderful story.

The story/plot is fun, imaginative and enjoyable. Thoroughly enjoy Brandon Mull (Beyonders series is my favorite though!) My kids and I loved listening to this story together. The narrator's inflections were not how I would have read it so it was a little annoying and I didn't think the music after each chapter added to the book, would have preferred non.

I loved this book!

I loved the story line and the story itself! I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy, magic, or Adventure.👍

Best fantasy book

I listened to my father read this book series to me as a kid and even at 23 years old it still holds up as an adventure in the pages. listening to it on audiobook tho adds a whole new flair as each character comes to live with the voice actors.

ooofff!!!! what an amazing book!

this series is just outstanding!!!! just started and I am hooked! can't wait to listen to the rest of the books in the series!

Please cast a new voice person

The book is awesome, one of my favorites ....And I’m sure the person reading/performing is a great person.. but they KILL the story. I can’t stress this enough, recast the narrator! The way they talk with this fake sugar coat voice makes me wanna throw my phone.

Great family friendly read!

This is a great family friendly book I will be recommending. If your children enjoy fantasy, fairy tales and good triumphing over evil, they will love this series!

Great book- poor narrator.

Good storyline, but the narrator is terrible. Annoying voices with intonation that doesn't seem appropriate throughout most of the book.

One of my favorites

I started listening to the fable haven series on my iPod when I was a freshmen in high school... I am now a freshmen at college and I still absolutely love this book. There is so much that goes on in series. All of the adventures Kendra and Seth still grip me with jealousy. Great book!! Great series!! Great everything!
