Kendra and Seth Sorenson
are just two “normal” kids until an unexpected event happens. Their grandpa
called them to his house because he needs their help saving his sanctuary, called
Fablehaven. For five years, the siblings have battled monsters, stopped
plagues, and saved nymphs, but nothing ever endangered the outside world like
this. Because of their ability to stand in the presence of a dragon and not
freeze, they were called up to the job. Little do they know how this will be
harder than all the other challenges they have faced.
One reason that I really
liked the first book of Dragonwatch because it was captivating. It was
also sorrowful and stressful, but at the same time you have exciting and
suspenseful moments. My favorite part was when a character named Celebrant (the
king of the dragons) literally tears off an area of the house and tries to kill
Kendra and Seth with fire. It was so exciting!
Also, I really liked
this novel because it kept me on my toes. When my mom would call me down to
dinner, it was so hard to rip myself away from this wonderful book. With
dragons slinking around, there are not many books that are more sensational.
This is definitely a
book that I would recommend to anyone looking for an adventure shrouded in
terror. I would definitely give it a 10 out of 10. As a piece of advice, you
should also read Fablehaven, all five books, before you read Dragonwatch
so you know what in the world is happening.
Shadow Mountain, 384 pages
