Beast Quest Box Set Series 1 (Book 1 to 6)

Unfortunately, my order was lost during the delivery but Amazon helped me.I really appreciate for perfect customer service. I ordered again and my kids are happy now.

This set of books arrived quickly and my 8 year old grandson is reading one a night and enjoying them.

Bought as a gift. Recipient reported back that all but one had now been read and was delighted with them. Ideal for the young reader and I thought the pack very reasonably priced.

These books are great. There are a small number of characters involved and relatively short chapters making them easy to follow for young readers. The characters, beasts and adventures involved are fun to read about.

My son is nearly seven and reads exceptionally well for his age, but like many small boys he can be a bit lazy and sometimes getting him to read would be a chore. Part of this is down to the fact the books he gets sent home from school with are in many cases absolute rubbish (he was sent one set that had no punctuation, making it almost impossible to read coherently). We've found the best solution to this is find books he's interested in, and preferably ones that are well written.He has a really strong interest in mythology, and likes reading Greek and Roman stories. He was particularly keen on the labours of Heracles and Homer's Odyssey and the Iliad, as well as the Norse Sagas and a well thumbed copy of Beowulf. He also makes frequent trips to the local library and it was there he found the first Beast Quest book. He read it from cover to cover in less than a day and then nagged to go back to the library to get the next one, but they only had four books and they were out of order so I ordered this set for him.As a general rule, he gets a story read to him before bed, but once he got these he now not only gets a couple of chapters read to him - he actually takes the book to bed with him and reads more of it himself. He tends to read a couple of chapters at night, and then more in the morning. He's currently working his way through series four at a prodigious rate.I've read some of the books myself and to be brutally honest, the early books aren't massively well written, tending to be a collection of short sentences rather than being punctuated properly, but the writing improves as the series progress and more importantly the stories are fun and action packed, even if they do tend to borrow rather heavily from other sources but even that in itself isn't terrible as it introduces some of the more common mythical elements such as the Minotaur and Pegasus.On the whole, if you have a child around this age, especially a boy, you could could do a lot worse than try these books. The only real downside we've found is that he reads them so avidly we're slightly concerned at what we'll do once he's read them all.

Great gift for Grandson's birthday well worth the money

My 10 year old loves them!

Read the books back as a kid decided to buy them as a gift was a little disappointed that they have changed the cover art and a few other changes and also does not include the cards or bookmarks any more so it’s really overpriced for what it is probably better buying else where
