Wild Born was the next level up to books my 8 yr old son is reading, so I thought I'd get the audiobook. My local reading library is divided into ability sections. They train with the other Greencloaks and go off to battle evil.Ĭracks along - Clever computer game tie in It would be: Four kids that live in the world of Erdas summon 'Spirit Animals' and become Greencloaks. If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be? I have not listened to any of her performances before, but if she does others (not in this series) I will listen to them. Have you listened to any of Nicola Barber’s other performances before? How does this one compare? Scholastic makes computer games out of a lot of books.

Readers eager to spend more time in Erdas (and find their own spirit animals) can do so in an online game that ties into the series. Mull carves out each distinct hero in spare prose that moves the story quickly forward (along with several animal- and superpower-driven action sequences) as Meilin, Connor, Rollan, and Abeke forge relationships with their spirit animals and decide where they stand in the imminent war. Now, there are signs that the Devourer may return meanwhile, four children from around the world shock themselves and those around them when they summon the four Fallen Beasts. Greencloaks, those with spirit animals, are an important order that helped defeat the Devourer hundreds of years ago, with help from four Great Beasts who gave their lives to protect Erdas. In the world of Erdas, 11-year-olds must all drink the Nectar to see if they have the rare ability to summon a spirit animal. Mull (the Beyonders books) kicks off the multiplatform Spirit Animals series with an exciting first installment (volume two arrives in January 2014, written by Maggie Stiefvater).
