For centuries, mystical creatures of all description were gathered to a hidden refuge called Fablehaven to prevent their extinction. The sanctuary is one of the last strongholds of true magic. Enchanting? Absolutely. Exciting? You bet. Safe? Well, actually, quite the opposite . . .
Kendra and her brother, Seth, have no idea their grandfather is the current caretaker of Fablehaven. Inside the gated woods, ancient laws keep order among greedy trolls, mischievous satyrs, plotting witches, spiteful imps, and jealous fairies. However, when the rules get broken, powerful forces of evil are unleashed, forcing Kendra and Seth to face the greatest challenge of their lives, to save their family, Fablehaven, and perhaps even the world.

This is an AMAZING book. Brother and sister, Seth and Kendra, find themselves staying at their grandparents' house, in the middle of nowhere, who they barely know. There, they are told to NEVER go into the woods with a capital N. As in, they probably should not have. While Seth strays into the woods, drawn by the mystery and beauty of it, Kendra is dazzled by the hummingbirds, that are attracted to the sparkling surface of a jewel encrusted mirror. She soon learns that they are faeries, who so dearly love their reflections. They can only be seen if you drink the milk of their giant cow. Soon, mid summers night comes. That is when all the monsters in the woods can come into their yard. Seth and Kendra are told to stay in their room... But sometimes things can just be too tempting... Join Seth and Kendra on this action packed, mysterious, beautiful story that will keep you on your toes, (or wings), the entire time.
Kendra and Seth are going to stay with their grandparents while their parents go on a cruise. At first, they're reluctant to go, but then they find a very special secret about their grandparent's farm. It's really a magical home for mythical creatures called Fablehaven! But when Seth and Kendra accidentally put Fablehaven in great danger, it's up to them to save it. Can they save Fablehaven-and everyone who lives there, including their grandparents and themselves!-before it's too late?
OOOOH I like it already It sounds like youv'e been taking awhile for this book to be the greatest.

But when the two find an enchanting refuge for mystical creatures a journey will begin! With fairies, witches, imps and more the brother and sister find themselves in a magical world where fate will lead them to a rule breaking that will effect their family, and even the whole world. Fablehaven may be exciting and enchanting but is it safe? To save her family, Fablehaven and even the whole world Kendra must face her greatest fears. So there's just one question, CAN SHE!?!?! This book gets a four star from me! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
