Dragonwatch: Master of the Phantom Isle (Book 3) by Brandom Mull

Cursed by the Key of Forgetting, Seth has lost all memory of his past—his relationships, his experiences, and who he really is. For now he will align with his new mentor, Ronodin, the dark unicorn, who takes him to the Phantom Isle, the secret gateway to the Under Realm. Though Seth is not formally a prisoner, Ronodin wants to use him and his shadow charmer powers for his own dark ends.

Kendra is frantic to find her missing brother, but the quest will take her and her companions, including Warren, Tanu, and Vanessa, far from Wyrmroost to Crescent Lagoon—a recently fallen dragon sanctuary made up of many islands and underwater domains. Its caretaker has regained a foothold on one of the islands. If Kendra and her friends can save that sanctuary, they might uncover the answers they need to rescue Seth.

With each sanctuary the dragons overthrow, Celebrant, the Dragon King, comes closer to the dawn of a new Age of Dragons. With the forces of darkness on the march, can Kendra and her allies gather enough power to win the epic dragon war?

My Review

5 Stars

After the ending of the last book I couldn’t wait to get into Master of the Phantom Isle and find out what is going to happen next. We jump right back into the story at the same place. Seth has lost the memories that define him. He is under the guidance of Ronodin and we find him doing evil deeds. It’s heartbreaking to watch this but his true personality is going to come through.

At the same time Kendra is out trying to find her brother but has her own adventure. She is off to try stop the war with the dragons, save another sanctuary with a fresh new location. Of course she has some help from friends in the past. But over all Kendra has become the strong leader that is needed to save her brother.

I just love this series and where it’s going. Although I was hesitant about the siblings being split up this leads to us exploring more of the world and broadening their characters. This is a great series for midgrade readers to adults. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. I voluntarily chose to read and post an honest review.

I would like to thank Shadow Mountain Publishing for the opportunity to read and share this book.
