Middle part books are always the one that is the most forgettable and there are cases when these books are just fodders. Such is the case in Michael Scott’s Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel and even Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson. I love both of these series but if you ask me what happened in The Necromancer or Battle of the Labyrinth, I will likely just give you a two-sentence long summary or worse, a blank stare. But if you ask me about the first book or the finale, I would tell you everything in detail and with vigor your ears might bleed.

It is one of the most common writing traps. Authors tends to play some of their aces in the first book to hook you in and the rest of their remaining aces in the finale to blow your mind and make a lasting impression. Now, it’s either Brandon Mull is a cheater or a magician that he has endless supply of aces or he is just skillful on distributing fair amounts of it in his books. I personally prefer the former for it is way more wicked.

Grip of the Shadow Plague starts several weeks after the events of Rise of the Evening Star with Kendra being invited to join the Knights of Dawn, a secret society which function is to protect all the magical preserves across the globe. Right after joining the society, she was assigned to retrieve another secret artifact hidden at a preserve in Arizona, The Lost Mesa. Meanwhile at Fablehaven, Seth is not missing out any actions as the creatures – even those without fallen states – are turning into creatures of darkness. Creatures known to be gentle and nurturing are transformed into wild and savage beasts. The Shadow Plague is spreading fast and they must find a way to stop it before in consumes the entire magical preserve making Fablehaven just a part of history.

Brandon Mull continues to impress me by writing the third book in this ever-imaginative series in dual narratives. The transitions were not seamless but both were engaging and very exciting. The Lost Mesa is a very interesting preserve. Creatures that inhabits this preserve are different from Fablehaven(there are zombies!), albeit much more dangerous. It also follows an entirely different set of rules and hides its own secrets. Fablehaven itself has its own deep dark secrets and a grim history that were exposed in this book. This is what makes this series truly, well, magical – the preserves are characters of its own.

Grip of the Shadow Plague, literally and figuratively, took a much darker turn compared to its predecessors. There were lives sacrificed, and the characters’ motives lies within the thin line that separates good and evil. There was also a time travel subplot that ended with a tragic and heartbreaking conclusion. Our heroes were more matured – Kendra has less doubt in herself than before and there were lesser amount of times I wanted to scream at Seth – but nothing prepared them for the dire events happened in this book. The only flaw I can complain about in this installment is how Mull kept his characters clueless about a certain conflict even if the answer was staring at their faces, or Kendra’s face at least. This isn’t enough to topple one star, though, cause this particular conflict is not really the focus of this book and there were too much going on for me to be distracted and forget about it at the most crucial points of the story. I think its part of Kendra’s characterization, anyway. She’s too trusting to suspect anyone. These things I’m sure will happen in the next book, Secrets of the Dragon Sanctuary: enemies will be unmasked, hearts will be broken, Brandon Mull will continue to show off his storytelling prowess and Aaron, once again, will be left breathless.(less)

I enjoy the Fablehaven series, and this third one was very good. I like Mull's creativity and energy. I appreciate his ongoing discussion of the nature of good and evil, the power of our choices, and in this one, the consequences of choosing to believe or not. I liked the way this book expanded the characters and locations of the story. And Patton Burgess is awesome! :)

We get to talk about tricky things like Do bad creatures need to be destroyed, or do they play a necessary part in an environment. That can go from the reintroduction of predator species to free speech discussions. We talk about rules and when you might have to break them and consequences.

Seth is growing up and making better decisions. Brandon has fallen into a writer's trap of alternating story lines between two primary characters. And finally, the series became so-so.

All that said, Grip of the Shadow Plague was another good read from the Fablehaven series for young adult readers and should keep their interest. Both my wife and I agree that this will start to appeal more to boys with Seth's new-found "wisdom" (and I use quotes because he isn't there yet, but well on his way).

All that said, Grip of the Shadow Plague was another good read from the Fablehaven series for young adult readers and should keep their interest. Both my wife and I agree that this will start to appeal more to boys with Seth's new-found "wisdom" (and I use quotes because he isn't there yet, but well on his way).

If I remember correctly, the first two Fablehaven books seemed to each tell their own story, all by themselves. This one, the writer came to the forefront with a technique that felt "forced." With Kendra off on assignment (yeah, that's right, but I won't tell you why or where), Seth was left back at Fablehaven with a lot of problems facing that stronghold of magic. As a result, the story alternates by chapter through a fair amount of the book between Kendra's problems and Seth's. Rather than let time and nature guide the story, giving the book a life of its own, I felt the author was pushed into a writing regimen that didn't work particularly well. Whenever this happens in a novel, the story loses its focus and that's what happened here.

The story became somewhat bland and any tension-building was lost each time the scene changed from one location to another. I've put down books because of this and I hope that it doesn't happen to the fourth of the series.

Finally, Kendra is developing powers that are not only making her a target for the bad guys, but also powers that are protecting her against those same bad guys. It puts the author into a precarious position, having to come up with something that will truly challenge our young heroine.

Seth rides to the rescue. While Kendra gets to go off for some truly disgusting stuff, which would thrill Seth, he languishes back at boring old Fablehaven. Never mind that creatures of light are turning into creatures of darkness and infecting the rest of the group. Never mind that Seth grows serious when left to his own designs and starts to realize that one really must give thought before action. Never mind that he even has to hide what he's doing because if Kendra ever found out, he'd never live it down. All of this brings to Seth a new-found maturity that leaves us pleased with his progress and smiling at the end.

Only the loss of tension through scene-switching (which didn't work well in this case) drug this down into the four-star realm. Brandon's writing stumbled only a couple of times (rare for him), but nothing grammatically horrible--just enough for me to notice and puzzle for a moment.

One particularly astute observation struck me on this book and it is worth mentioning. "Total unbelief is a powerful inhibitor."

And with that, I leave you my thoughts and review of Grip of the Shadow Plague.

I think I like this book the best so far out of the series. It felt more complete and whole somehow. I assume it is at least partly because Brandon is becoming a better writer. But I think it also has to do with an improved plot structure and more intense, realistic conflict.

Setting: Still mostly at Fablehaven, but with explorations of even more of the area. Also, Kendra does get to go to a meeting of a secret society (held in a house like a castle) and then to another preserve in Arizona. So, f...more

Brandon Mull has delivered more of the same with book three of this series, which is just what we wanted.

The plot moved along at a good clip, keeping us involved and engaged.

The characters were real and true to their previous actions. It was a lot of fun to discover along with the kids their unique talents and abilities.

Reading aloud to Emily, I had to pause and laugh quite a few times at the interplay between Seth and Kendra, and between them and the adults.

This is a book I will like more in the future as I think back on it than I do right now having just finished it. The storyline was fine, but the execution of it fell flat for me. I was never completely drawn into the story until about the last hundred pages. Most of this was due to the splitting of the storyline with Kendra on a mission at Lost Mesa in Arizona while Seth stayed at Fablehaven and had adventures there. It felt very choppy as we jumped back and forth between the two storylines. May...more

Don't get me wrong, it's not that it wasn't good, it just didn't hold my attention like the first two, and it was patently predictable, following in the same formula as the first two.

The Fablehaven series was, in my opinion, the best fantasy series since Harry Potter. This underlooked series began with an unlikely pair of protagonists, a sister and a nosy younger brother who won't follow the rules. The magic of this story unfolds slowly, as Kendra and Seth discover things for themselves, and that heightens the excitement. The series progresses with switchbacks, reroutes, and changed alliances. Mull does an amazing job of character development, and when characters switch alle...more

As with his other books, Mull's prose is fast-paced and easily accessible. Kendra and Seth continue to mature, and Seth's antics are not nearly as annoying as in the first "Fablehaven."

Seth has grown to care for the preserve and its creatures, which shows in his actions. He's also developed some new skills that come as a welcome surprise when it seems all hope is lost.

It has hidden wonders and secret passageways. It's a place where magic happens! It is a 477 paged book that is filled with wonders. I started reading fablehaven because my friends said that Brandon Mull is a great author. Yes, they were right. I love reading Fablehaven! Brandon Mull makes the books come alive. His characters that he makes up are great!
My favorite characters that he has are Seth, Kendra, and their grandparents. Seth, first of all, he's crazy. He's fun to read about in the book because of all his adventures. He gets gold, and hangs around the satyrs. He gets into trouble and does dangerouse things like wandering all alone in the forest by himself, going into the nipsies kingdoms, and trying to stop a war. Kendra, on the other hand is a very nice girl, although she does enjoy getting her brother in trouble. She is very brave, some examples of this is when she became a knight, and when she had to go as a knight to recharge the hidden artifact. Kendra is the smartest one between her and her brother. She seems to know what to do and makes smart choices. Kendra always wants to know what's going on and I can relate myself to that. Their grandparents are about the smartest ones on the preserve right now. They know what's going on and they get things done if they need to be done. They don't always know what's going on with Seth though, Kendra usually tells them or they have the others on the preserve tell them. They always know what's best for Fablehaven and for their friends and their grandchildren.
The setting of the book is mainly in Fablehaven, but it does also go to the other secret preserves like Fablehaven. Fablehaven was written for grades around 6th through 10th, but I believe anyone could read it if they really had an interest in it. I would recomend this book to all of thoes lovers of mysteries. It's a great mystery and action book. It keeps you reading it and has suspence at some points!
One quote that I really liked was "When we approached the meadow of the Seven Kingdoms, a shadowy figure fled." (Page 60) It caught my eye because it was really the first thing that had been really mysterious. That's my favorite part in a book when something catches your eye and you get interested! Another quote that I really liked was "If it means getting out of school, maybe we should lock Mom and Dad in the dungeon."(Page 282) This quote was said by Seth, it's no suprise for me that Seth would say something like that. I loved this quote because it ws a funny little one-liner, and it's fun to come across those. This book is very fun to read. I loved Fablehaven and its a very good book. I love the trials the characters have to go through and I love the way Brandon Mull wrote the book. This book has happy, sad, scary, suspense, and exciting moments!

In this book Kendra is summoned to join the Knights of the Dawn; she ends up on an expedition to recover another artifact from a secret preserve. Seth is angry at being left behind, until he ends up embroiled in adventures of his own. Somehow creatures at Fablehaven are turning dark and evil, even creatures that have never had an evil form. The Shadow Plague is spreading at an alarming rate and Seth needs to figure out what is going on before Fablehaven is completely destroyed.

Things are more dire and desperate than ever in this book. The new characters introduced in this book are wonderful additions (don't worry all the wonderful characters from the last book are still there too!). The addition of Gavin as a dragon tamer and a possible love interest for Kendra was wonderful; he is a great character with really interesting abilities. The plot gets even more complicated as the levels of deceit within the Knights of the Dawn are realized. There is so much at stake in this book and things get so desperate; I had a really tough time putting this book down! There were points where this book almost had me in tears I was so concerned for everyone and points where I was grinning wildly in relief. As with the previous book, Mull lightens things up occasionally with a biting sense of humor.

It was nice that Seth started to develop some special abilities of his own. Although Kendra still takes center stage for much of the book with her abilities as Fairykind. Overall I was really impressed. Mull continues to develop wonderful plot lines, intriguing characters, and gives his world greater and greater depth. Younger kids might get scared at some parts of this book, as things get very dire in this book. Still, I think most children and adults will really enjoy this series. I can't wait to see what book four brings!(less)
