Review

When it comes to fantasy audiobooks for young listeners (and those young at heart), few narrators can conjure magic quite like Kirby Heyborne. Before even delving into Brandon Mull’s spellbinding tale in “Dragonwatch,” it’s Heyborne’s energetic performance that sets expectations soaring. He masterfully embodies Kendra and Seth Sorenson – our brave sibling protagonists – as they are thrust back into Fablehaven’s enchanting chaos, now reimagined as a dragon sanctuary brimming with tension and possibility.

Heyborne brings palpable excitement to every scene: whether it’s Celebrant the King of Dragons plotting his escape or the quiet moments of doubt as Kendra and Seth grapple with their daunting responsibilities. His tone shifts effortlessly from awe-struck wonder at magical beasts to nail-biting urgency during battles, ensuring listeners are never mere spectators but participants in Mull’s living tapestry.

Of course, narration alone cannot carry an epic; Mull’s narrative craft shines throughout “Dragonwatch.” The story picks up five years after Fablehaven – a deft move that welcomes series newcomers while rewarding loyal fans with familiar faces cast in fresh light. This isn’t just another magical preserve adventure: dragons once held captive now threaten rebellion, ushering in dangers that demand true courage from our heroes. New characters add complexity without crowding out old favorites, while themes of resilience and hope resonate deeply through each challenge faced.

Mull’s world-building pulses with creativity – from cunning dragon riders to secret sanctums – and twists abound enough to keep seasoned readers guessing. If there is any critique here, it would be the occasional predictable arc or slow-paced passage; yet these lulls feel intentional, allowing time for reflection before plunging listeners into thrilling new dilemmas.

Whether you’re drawn by nostalgia for Fablehaven or searching for your next high-stakes fantasy fix, “Dragonwatch” stands tall among modern teen & young adult listens – richly imagined and emotionally stirring thanks both to its author’s vision and its narrator’s vivacity.
