Adam 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!
It's a great new series or mini series in the Beast Quest universe. More science than magic, but I am ok with that. It's not very action-packed but a very good story and a great start.
The planet Avantia no longer exists. The survivors are not living aboard a space station Vantia1. Harry is one of the survivors. Adopted by the head of Engineering and has his own knack for inventing and engineering, but dreams of being a cadet. Now, for the first time in Vantia1's time in space, the station is under attack. Will they be able to survive this.
A great start to this series. At first read, I would say it is foe slightly more mature audience than Beast Quedt was set as. I am looking forward to the next book and where the series goes from here? I hope there is a book more action in the next book.
