My eldest enjoyed this series immensely, and I just finished reading it aloud to my younger three; the eldest listened in for most of it. What a well-written, exciting tale with plenty of mystery. Page turning, edge-of-your-seat reading that had our whole family spellbound. We dive into North or be Eaten tomorrow! є є є є є Reader review
The first book in the Wingfeather Saga. It grabs you and never lets go. I highly recommend this book by a seriously good author. є є є є є Reader review
It was the front cover that attracted me to this book and I’m glad it did. The story is set in a magical world that felt so real. It manages to be both humorous and scary. The characters were well built and described so well that I felt I was in an RPG computer game! є є є є є Reader review
This is the beginning of a fantastic series of books. When you read this volume, you might find the creatures outlandish and the names of things silly, but there are deeper details at work. The three children and their adults are about to embark on a tremendous adventure while learning about sacrifice, perseverance, and love. є є є є є Reader review

These books really stand out in current children's fiction - they are vibrant tales with many fast-paced and surprising plot twists plus the characters face real, often terrifying, challenges, and experience sorrow and joy, worries and self doubts, new beginnings and restoration. They are fully human. And through each tale are woven varied threads of hope, courage, companionship, faith and self-discovery. An enriching experience.
Highly recommended reads for 8-14 year olds, though younger readers (age 8-9) would benefit from reading with an adult to aid their understanding and enjoyment.
