The latter does at least allow for him to move his troops into a locale well suited to a fairly strongly-written conclusion. The kinetic battle scenes are the only saving grace and selling point for this title - if it weren't for the clarity and drive of the action writing this franchise would be doomed to failure. It's a typical Adam Blade book - young male hero, surprised at finding himself killing people, and with the usual strong whiff of monster-of-the-month, by-the-numbers stuff. And it'll sell in typically Adam Blade numbers, even without the collector's cards and competitions all over Beast Quest titles such as [[Creta the Winged Terror (Beast Quest) by Adam Blade|Creta the Winged Terror]]. Even though it is the template, and not a whole lot else.
I must thank the publishers for my review copy. We also have a review of [[The Chronicles of Avantia: Call to War by Adam Blade]].
There's a better series for children just slightly older than this one's audience, beginning with [[Firestorm (Dragon Orb) by Mark Robson|Firestorm by Mark Robson]].
