It is obvious that Brandon Mull’s passion project was definitely Fablehaven. You can feel it in his writing that he loves these characters and setting so much that it draws you in. Dragonwatch has been a joy to read! With loveable characters and twists that leave you in suspense. This modern fantasy book is full of twist and turns, excitement and heartwarming adventures. I loved it!
I will say that Mull struggles with natural dialog, though it not in a way that bogs down the reading. It’s something he obviously tries to focus on as he works through certain conversations in this book. His simplistic writing style also reminds me a lot of a more detail-oriented Rick Riordan. Definitely an underrated author.
