Description

Jason tumbles into a quest to save a magical in this #1 New York Times bestselling start to Brandon Mull’s Beyonders fantasy series.

Jason Walker has often wished his life could be a bit less predictable—until a routine day at the zoo ends with Jason suddenly transporting from the hippo tank to a place unlike anything he’s ever seen. In the past, the people of Lyrian welcomed visitors from the Beyond, but attitudes have changed since the wizard emperor Maldor rose to power. The brave resistors who opposed the emperor have been bought off or broken, leaving a realm where fear and suspicion prevail.

In his search for a way home, Jason meets Rachel, who was also mysteriously drawn to Lyrian from our world. With the help of a few scattered rebels, Jason and Rachel become entangled in a quest to piece together the word of power that can destroy the emperor and learn that their best hope to find a way home will be to save this world without heroes.

    Awesome read! I read the Fablehaven series and was looking for more books by Brandon Mull. I was NOT diss appointed. This book was a great story told in a style that keeps you reading . Brandon makes you care about every character not just the main ones. I can't wait to Read the next one. These would be awesome in audio my children love to follow along in the book while the book is read aloud. It teaches sight recognition,how to pronounce the words properly etc. plus adults can close your eyes and watch the story unfold in your mind. Thank you Brandon for another wonderful story.
  • The book is pretty good.

    I haven't read the whole first book, to let you all know. It was okay, but i found it a little boring without mythical creatures. I'm not trying to be hurtful, to let you know. It's just that I'm a little picky with fantasy. If you like fantasy books with mythical and magical creatures, go with Brandon Mull's bestselling Fablehaven series. They were amongst the best fantasy books i have ever read. I hope that people make movies based on those books, and not too different from them. i wouldn't mind if they make movies about the Beyonders Trilogy either, and not too different, either. I have to agree with Jamesarino, though. Both the Beyonders series and the Fablehaven series can be a little too gruesome at some points, like how i read the first two books of the chronicles of Avantia series. there were many gruesome parts in those books, and there was a part in the second book that got very disturbing and way too detailed. So it would be better if they are read by older readers.
  • Very good book

    The story was very gripping, enough to keep me on the edge of my seat. There are many humorous parts that help lighten the mood a bit. Overall, the characters are really well written and have fun and very different personalities. I can't say how much it bothers me to have a book filled with 100 characters that all seem like the same person. That is definitely not the case with this book, as all the characters are very interesting and they all bring something different to the table.
  • Wow what can I say!

    A very fascinating book. Easy to read and very fast paced. Exciting to the end. The second book is even better. I for one cannot wait until the end.
  • Great book!

    This is a great book from Brandon. I would suggest a slightly older audience than Fablehaven but I bet most who liked Fablehaven will love Beuonders! Can't wait for the rest of the series!
