Book Synopsis
A New York Times Bestseller! Debuted at #4
#1 New York Times best-selling author Brandon Mull returns to Fablehaven with a brand-new story starring the comedic satyrs, Newel and Doren, and their battle against a gorgon.
Starred Review: "The novel’s plot is well-written and engaging. Newel and Doren are humorous, well-rounded, and believable, and their unique dynamic is strongly crafted . . . For fans of fantasy, adventure, and mythology, this is a must-read. Recommended for most library collections." -School Library Journal
Everyone’s favorite satyrs are back at Fablehaven after helping Dragonwatch put an end to the dragon rebellion. Truth be told, with everything they’ve been through, Newel and Doren are maturing into more responsible citizens. The thought of growing out of adolescence has the two goatmen in crisis mode. If that isn’t enough to worry about, there’s a new threat at Fablehaven. A few unlucky inhabitants have been found petrified, turned to stone, including some of their fellow satyrs. Could a rampaging gorgon be on the loose?
Newel and Doren become intrigued after an informant divulges information about a legendary listening doll—a talisman with the power to reveal the antidote for any magical malady—hidden somewhere in the Florida swamplands. If the mystical doll can solve any problem, maybe she has the answer of how to turn back the clock, so they won’t have to grow up.
Perhaps a trip to Florida is just what Newel and Doren need to get their mojo back in time to win the annual Satyr Games. Two new challengers, Barrett and Hoff, are talking smack about dethroning Newell and Doren as perennial champions of the games. And the new opponents have a smartphone!
Finding the listening doll and saving Fablehaven is important, sure. But Newel and Doren are also desperate for a smartphone of their own. Let the adventure and the games begin!

My Review
I get so happy about anything related to the Fablehaven books! "The Gorgon's Fury," book one of the Newel and Doren series, was a great surprise.
I've loved Newel and Doren since the first Fablehaven book. They are funny satyrs living at Fablehaven a magical preserve. Their words and actions always make me laugh. These jokers added comic relief to the Fablehaven and Dragonwatch books. They've become more mature in this new book.
What's in store for readers? Newel and Doren go on an adventure to fix a problem at the preserve. Some Fablehaven folks have turned to stone. They seek a talisman, the Listening Doll, in Florida's swamps. Newel and Doren hunt for magic items. They also want smartphones and you have to read the book to see why they need them. Plus, they are competing in the Satyr Games and have some strong rivals to take the crown away from them.
Kids aged 8-12 will love this book but teens and adults will also enjoy it too. Brandon Mull has written another book that will excite a new generation of readers.
