Or they would think about it after talking about it and then explain it to another character. Mull would explain a situation in the narrative, then the characters would talk about it, and then they would do what they talked about. This whole book suffered from what I could only refer to as a redundancy crisis. Now, let’s talk a little about the writing. Another improvement, Mull is not beating us over the head with an obvious moral.

I found them much more well-rounded and likeable this time around.

As a writer, Mull’s greatest strength is in the story itself and he has done well.Īs a huge improvement from book #1, Kendra and Seth are no longer the 100% stereotype good girl/bad boy. Mull has crafted another great storyline loaded with twists and surprises. Fablehaven: Rise of the Evening Star, the continued adventure of Kendra and Seth as they learn more about Fablehaven and all mystical and dangerous creatures dwelling there.
