It's a fine book. Certainly not the most interesting or impressive children's book I've ever read, but also not the worst. The storyline isn't very impressive, but it's quite well-written considering the very basic, easy-to-read language used.
My favorite part was when the king's soldiers tried to accuse a wolf of poaching. It's a wolf. It's going to kill animals in the woods. I don't think that actually counts as poaching.

I think I'm a bit to old for it really. Nice mild peril, magic, action and adventure story for boys. Like the pictures.

I wanted to know what my five year old nephew is reading. I'm not sure how he understands some of the concepts in this book, but I wonder if this has anything to do with his enjoyment of violence.

This is an easy, quick read.
The writing is very simple, but with lots of adventure. A good fit for children who aren't super into reading. I really liked the pace of the story. A lot happens in a short amount of time.
It's a pretty typical "chosen one" story, but I liked the set up and think it has the makings of an interesting series.

I've started listening to this series as an audiobook after reading it as a kid years ago and yeah, still fun! It sounds like a video game and as far as something to listen to while I cycle around town, it very much fills the hole I need for that niche. Very easy to absolutely rip through these bad boys, both as a child and as an adult.
The dragon that lit the flame that launched a thousand team Adam Blade books!! Anyway this is book number one of Beast Quest and the launch of team Adam Blade on the unsuspecting world. Generic, formulaic, a quest to save the world from beasts, although not kill them, but set them free from their trapped state, something to think about there. It is not great literature but for the younger reader it will be a hoot, and it is very popular, and to be honest, it is still better than most of the modern junk coming from team James Patterson, so don't expect a lot, but it is entertaining.
