Re-reading this was very enjoyable. I found that I picked upon several things s that I did not before, like for instance, the deepening mystery of Tom's father and what's going on with him. I also noticed that it paid attention to how Tom was missing his Aunt and Uncle nearing the end. Yet I also found how Mr Blade used the animals very well as they were good at setting up the danger and heightening the danger of Serpon.
Yet I also found that this was a good character development moment for Tom as he is presented with a tough choice. Yet, even though as it is a children's book, it worked out in the end but the fact that Mr Blade brought it up here was quite surprising. So I must admit that I enjoyed it and even though it is fast paced I highly recommend it.

I accidentally picked this up instead of Deltora Quest and was bitterly disappointed. (Was too focused on the "Quest" part of the title)
There are similarities between the two series other than the name. I still haven't read DQ but I have seen the anime so I have a good idea of what it's all about.
I think it would be a decent read for younger kids. It spans that gap between fairy tales and proper novels. I'll probably give my copy to my seven-year-old cousin. Hopefully he'll like it.

My 8 year old sons love everything they have read so far from this author.

Bought for my 6 year old he is loving reading it out loud and I had to borrow it to read myself. A great adventure story for younger readers (7+ is aim) but also enjoyable for grow ups.
This is a fun fantasy adventure read. I look forward to introducing the series to my students.
I read through this quickly because I'd like to do a Beast Quest program at the library and haven't read any of the books. Considering the age level this series is for, it's not too bad. It's not the best fantasy book you're ever going to read, but I know kids here go nuts for them and that's all that matters to me. I may skim through a few more in the series just to see how it goes. They are only about 75 pages long and take about 30 minutes to read.
