I love how many things from the previous books played a part in this story. Also, when I first stared reading Fablehaven Seth was my least favorite character, but now he's my favorite. It's been a fun ride watching him grow up.

another fun read. I love being back in the Fablehaven universe and I'm glad Seth is getting a lot of time to shine in this series. the plot is fun and kept me interested and that's all you really need in a book tbh

I am a huge fan of Fablehaven. I read all 5 books aloud to my kids over the years and we were all thrilled when we found out that Mull had decided to do a sequel series. I really enjoy the world Mull has built.

Now, I will admit that book 3 was a little bit of a slog for me, but this one, book 4, was great! We're back to adventure and fun with great characters and not a lot of filler. This one solved several puzzles, but left new challenges to be conquered in book 5. I admit it was interesting to see the dragons enslaved - that's not something I saw coming. And a couple great new characters were introduced (the Legendary Dragon Slayer and Virgil).

Full of action and adventure - I definitely recommend this one!

This one felt sooo much more on par with Fablehaven. The last few books felt like disjointed fetch quests, and while this one still had fetch quest aspects, it was much more smooth and exciting than the others. Can’t wait for the next one!

I didn't expect to like this one as much as I did, but I think it's become my new favorite in the series. It was just that good. The world building sky rocketed in this book and we're seeing all of these little threads connect from the previous series (I am so anxious to see Seth fulfill his promise to the Singing Sisters and to see what Kendra decides about being an eternal.

Seth, used to drive me crazy, but his character growth in this book (and the rest of the series) is fantastic. He's finally realizing the extent of his powers and realizing that his actions have consequences. I particularly enjoyed his interactions with Reggie.

All of the new characters in this books were fascinating, I loved Merek and Virgil. I will admit, I still don't care for Knox but I am interested to see what role he plays after the *gigantic* decision he made at the end of the book. Unfortunately, Kendra is starting to feel a bit stale to me. I don't feel like she's grown at all. And we didn't get enough Bracken.

Overall this was a great installment and I cannot wait for the last book in the series. I bet it's gigantic.

How Brandon Mull continues to produce imaginative, engaging, and magical books will never cease to amaze me. The Fablehaven and Dragonwatch books have all been an absolute delight to read.

Champion of the Titan Games was a solid addition to the series, and I loved getting to experience another new sanctuary. The giants were a fun addition. Mostly I loved Seth's part in this book. The journey he went on was so important and I loved seeing him grow as a character. Of course Kendra's adventure was also enjoyable to read, and I liked how everything came together in the end.

I am so anxious to read the fifth and final book in the series. It will be a long wait, but I know it will absolutely be worth it!

Thank you to Shadow Mountain for sending me a copy to review!

This book have a incredible history and is a increible continue to the great story of Fableheaven. The book have only one problem, and it is that we have to wait for a year to reach the final of the story of the Sorenson siblings. I can't wait!
