About the author
Adam Blade
857 books214 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 very good Beast Quest book. It was action packed and lots of elements to this book, but I am not sure that they fit together, but I might be being a bit hasty as there are still a couple of books left in this series/quest, but I just can't see how yet I just hope it is not rushed.
I actually like in this book that Tom is a bit older and tougher as well a bit more intimidating. I think with all his accomplishment this is a bit overdue.
As much as I liked the action and adventure in the story, there seems to be too many threads that I don't see fitting together.

I’ve read this with my 7-year-old over the last couple of weeks. He loved it and it was a lot better than I thought it would be. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not something I’d go out of my way to read, but it’s great entertainment for children with fast pace and lots of action.
