A brilliant fantasy about a hidden refuge of mythical beasts and two children who are about to unleash some very powerful forces of evil...
Kendra and her brother, Seth, don't know too much about their mysterious Grandpa and Grandma Sorenson, and they discover why when they find themselves spending several weeks at their grandparents' remote estate while their parents are on a cruise. For their grandfather is the current caretaker of Fablehaven, a preserve for mystical creatures in danger of extinction. Ancient laws maintain a fragile order among greedy trolls, mischievous satyrs, plotting witches, spiteful imps, and jealous fairies, but when the rules get broken (Seth is a bit too curious and reckless for his own good...), powerful forces of evil are unleashed, and Kendra and Seth need to summon up more courage than they knew they had to set things right.
Ages: 9-12
