Fablehaven by Brandon Mull

Fablehaven



Kendra and Seth Sorenson are two middle school age kids who really don’t want to visit their old fashioned no-TV, you break it you buy it Grandfather in Connecticut. When they arrive, they begin to learn secrets about the old place, such as items hidden in the loft, an old abandoned lake, and the whereabouts of their grandmother who is supposedly off visiting relatives. Magical creatures may soon be unveiled…

            Mull really pulls the reader in with his expert writing skills, with something you don’t expect. His magnificent use of description and dialogue make you feel right with Kendra and Seth as it switches points of view from the two kids.

            The book gets a 10 out of 10 rating. It is the first of a five book series, all of which have come out.
