Thanks to Flying Eye Books for a review copy of this book.

 We all adored this sumptuously illustrated story of Arthur (the first Brownstone), who finds himself on a quest to help the gods defeat the wolf Fenrir & in turn save his own town. 

Arthur begins the book happily having adventures in the forest & meeting magical creatures. After being blamed by the town folk for his ‘meddling’ he embarks on a much larger & more dangerous quest. 

The children enjoyed hearing this exciting & adventurous story many times over. They both liked how although Arthur is just small he was able to defeat the wolf, where even gods had failed. The gorgeous illustrations helped bring the story to life in glorious technicolour. 

Unsurprisingly my favourite spread was of the library in the god’s hall, a place you could get truly lost in.
  
Another spread we liked was a map of Arthur’s journey to the great hall which inspired the children to make thier own. It proved to be a fun way to create their own mini adventures of battling monsters & trekking over mountains. 

This is a fabulous book leaving us all waiting impatiently for more stories from the Brownstone’s Mythical  Collection.
