Book Review

This is a fantastic book that sparked my imagination

This is a fantastic book that sparked my imagination. I enjoyed reading about the friendships as they showed a lot of compassion for each other.

I would suggest to read it in the daytime if you get scared easily as some parts detailed how the monsters looked, which was creepy.

I think it’s suitable for readers aged 7 and above who enjoy adventures and fantasy stories.

About the Book

Fablehouse is a children’s home like no other. It’s a safe haven for Heather and her friends, sheltering them from a society that won’t accept the colour of their skin. But soon that is not the only danger that threatens them. When mysterious spirits infiltrate the house, stealing away some of the children, the friends must follow them to the heart of the underworld.

There they find a magical court from Arthurian legend, where bewitched creatures are hatching a plan to take over the human world. With Pal, the gallant Black Knight, by their side, Heather and friends must resist the glamour of the Fae and battle the Champion. Can they find the inner strength they’ll need to save their home?
