Beast Quest: Special 1: Vedra & Krimon Twin Beasts of Avantia: Special 1 | 
pickThe second book in the 28th series of the BEAST QUEST illustrated adventure fantasy books by Adam Blade (a pseudonym for a collection of writers) for readers aged 7+ is a pacy affair with a real sense of jeopardy. I liked the fact that Katya had some personality and impetus, Styx was a genuinely frightening antagonist and there‘s a hint that Zarlo has an agenda of his own. Well worth a look if you have a young reader into fantasy.
so-soThe first book in the 28th series of the BEAST QUEST illustrated adventure fantasy books by Adam Blade (a pseudonym for a collection of writers) for readers aged 7+ is hampered by a lot of set-up, which is quite heavy handed to the point that the new potential Beast masters get lost as a result. The action scenes are solidly done and it hits the beats you expect but you probably get more from this if you‘ve read the preceding books.
