The Adventurer’s Guide to Dragonwatch By Brandon Mull & Illustrations by Brandon Dorman-Children's Fantasy Review




 Book Synopsis

WELCOME TO THE GUILD OF DRAGONWATCH

Millions of Fablehaven fans will be eager to examine this illustrated field guide and learn what dragon slayers and other members of Dragonwatch have known for centuries.

Many adventurers risked their lives gathering the information found within this one-of-a-kind book—a compendium of the most dangerous mythical and magical creatures around the world, including invaluable illustrations that reveal for the first time what these creatures actually look like.

You will learn secrets of the magical realms, including the history of the five great monarchs: The Underking, the Fairy Queen, the Demon King, the Giant Queen, and the Dragon King. In addition, you will learn about the priceless stone called the Ethergem that powered the five crowns of the monarchs.

By the end of the book, you will know more about dragons and giants (and a host of other mythical creatures) than your average dungeon master. Make yourself familiar with an invaluable study of magical items and artifacts, including the five legendary swords, never-before-revealed in any other publication known to man or woman. This information alone is worth all the gold in your pockets.

In addition, you will find a personal letter from the world’s greatest adventurer, Patton Burgess. Take heed to what he has to say, and you may live to the ripe age of sixteen.

You are now part of a consortium of wizards, enchantresses, dragon slayers, and others who risked everything to free the world from the tyrannical rule of dragons. A word to the wise: If you are being hunted by a dragon, no stronghold or castle will hide you for long. The best way to survive a dragon is not defense, it is offense. Use the information inside this book and go forth and hunt!

My Review 

Brandon Mull has created some of my favorite books and series. The Adventurer’s Guide to Dragonwatch is a companion to his well-loved Dragonwatch series.

This book is truly beautiful. I really liked the cover, especially the part that says, "Property of the Library at Fablehaven." This book reads like an encyclopedia and is full of secrets from the magical worlds in Fablehaven and Dragonwatch. I enjoyed learning more about magical items, artifacts, dragon slayers, five legendary swords, wizards, giants, and of course, dragons. The illustrations by Brandon Dorman are fantastic and really bring the stories to life.

This new addition to the Dragonwatch series is fun and imaginative. It will once again draw you and your kids into the captivating universe created by Brandon Mull.
