Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague, by Brandon Mull, is 3rd in the Fablehaven series for young readers.
Picking up where the last novel left off, Kendra and Seth are still at Fablehaven with their grandparents. Suspicions have been cast on the Sphinx and his loyalties. Kendra has been recruited as a Knight, and the family agrees that she should infiltrate with hopes of claiming the next artifact before the Sphinx can get to it. And Fablehaven is under attack by a mysterious darkness that is spreading extremely fast. Can Seth and the rest of his family and friends discover the cause and stop it before all of Fablehaven is lost?
Each installment in the Fablehaven series has been more action-packed and exciting than the next. Grip of the Shadow Plague has a fast-paced plot where danger and intrigue run rampant. New and interesting characters appear. Dark secrets and betrayals are uncovered. And more mysteries unfold.
Kendra and Seth are ordinary children who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances. Fablehaven is full of mystery and wonder that comes alive. Kendra’s humility and wisdom is admirable. And Seth’s enthusiasm and bravery is inspirational. Fablehaven is easily on par with the Harry Potter series. And if you’ve been waiting for something to fill the HP loss, look no further.
Fablehaven: Grip of the Shadow Plague releases from Shadow Mountain Press on April 21st.
