Step back into the world of Fablehaven with these two delightful satyr sidekicks! Two of my favorite side character cousins, Newel & Doren get a story all their own & I was definitely here for it. I loved the humor, friendship, & the growth these two undergo as they try to defeat a formidable foe & win the Satyr Games.
Newel & Doren hate to lose, but that’s what seems to be happening when a couple of upstarts steal their thunder at the Satyr Games. They even have new tech which Newel & Doren definitely need. But, while these two fun loving adolescents plot to win the prank war side of the games, they find themselves needing to step up & be the heroes when they find several friends turned to stone by a Gorgon. Will they be able to save their friends from this petrifying enemy before it’s too late?
I thoroughly enjoyed being plunged back into the Fablehaven world. My kids & I loved reading the Fablehaven series & Doren & Newel were some of our favorite comic relief characters. It was so fun seeing them grow & mature as they seek out a new adventure & become the heroes. Their humor & delightful way of problem solving pulled me right in & I enjoyed seeing their mostly slacker ways turned around.
There are some enchanting new characters added to this universe including salamanders, a listening doll, & swamp hags! I loved listening to each of these fabulous new additions via the audiobook. If you have a chance to listen, highly recommend! The narrator does a fantastic job bringing each of these characters to life. He made the story even more engaging with his fabulous voices.
Brandon Mull has a unique way of blending humor, adventure, & fun with profound messages of courage, strength, friendship, & not giving up. The Gorgon’s Fury has some fabulous themes & messages for middle graders & up.
Highly recommend this delightful new addition to the Fablehaven world & look forward to more adventures with these two lovable satyrs! I received an advanced complimentary copy from the publisher. All opinions are completely my own & voluntarily provided.

A fun kids fantasy, perfect for folks who like magic creatures, but anyone who knows anything about Fablehaven already knew that. ;)
