About the author
Adam Blade
857 books211 followersAdam Blade is the house name for the Working Partners Ltd. ghostwriters who write the Beast Quest and Sea Quest series.
Adam Blade is in his late twenties, and was born in Kent, England. His parents were both history teachers and amateur artists, and Adam grew up surrounded by his father’s paintings of historic English battles – which left a lifelong mark on his imagination. He was also fascinated by the ancient sword and shield that hung in his father’s office. Adam’s father said they were a Blade family heirloom.
As a boy, Adam would spend days imagining who could have first owned the sword and shield. Eventually, he created a character – Tom, the bravest boy warrior of them all. The idea for Beast Quest was born.
When Adam grew up and decided that he wanted to be a writer, he was stuck for ideas – until he remembered the old sword and shield, and the imaginary boy he had created when he was young. Adam decided to bring Tom fully to life so that readers could go on the kind of adventures that he always wanted to when he was that age… And still does, even though he’s grown up!
When he’s not writing Beast Quest books, Adam enjoys visiting museums and ancient battle sites. His main hobbies are fencing and football. He also spends a lot of time at home running around after his two exotic pets – a tarantula named Ziggy, and a capuchin monkey named Omar. These little rascals were the inspiration for two of the Beasts that Tom faces on his Quest – Arachnid and Claw.
Sadly, Adam does not have his own Fire-Dragon or Horse-Man. But he really wishes he did!

A great Beast Quest book. Tom and his Elenna are looking for the next ingredient in their quest.
This time finding it also will be necessary for their own survival as well. Apart from that they must face fierce beast, on it's own turf and with an army of it's own.
One of the things I really liked in this book was that Elenna got some of the credit she deserved and was long overdue. I would have liked more of a back story on this but I am glad it happened.
I am really interested to see what happens next. There is a bit of going back to the first quest where Tom had to free the other beast rather then destroying them. The I am enjoying the half way point of this series. As a lit seem to need to be done and it must happen in 4 books instead of 6.
