#1 New York Times bestseller Brandon Mull launches Scholastic's wildly popular multiplatform phenomenon.

Four children separated by vast distances all undergo the same ritual, watched by cloaked strangers. Four flashes of light erupt, and from them emerge the unmistakable shapes of incredible beasts -- a wolf, a leopard, a panda, a falcon. Suddenly the paths of these children -- and the world -- have been changed forever.

Enter the world of Erdas, where every child who comes of age must discover if they have a spirit animal, a rare bond between human and beast that bestows great powers to both. A dark force has risen from distant and long-forgotten lands, and has begun an onslaught that will ravage the world. Now the fate of Erdas has fallen on the shoulders of four young strangers . . . and on you.

Part engrossing book series, part action role-playing game -- discover your spirit animal and join the adventure.

I've only read some of it so far, so I don't know much about the book.So far, I read that these 4 kids have called these great beasts and unleashed them. These are the most powerful spirit animals anyone can ever call. There is also a war beginning in the book. Judging from the cover, I can tell that these 4 kids are probably going to have to team up and save something, possibly the war.

it looks ok

the book had allot of meaningful words, i did a book report on this because it was so good

It mad me cry and I mean love I Brandon Mull after that! you should read it !!!!

this book is a really great book because it is so adventurous and really exciting

Conor, Abeke, Meilin, and Rollan have lived pretty normal lives. They are from the four different regions of Erdas, but nothing strange and amazing has ever happened to them. Until now. All four of them summon spirit animals-lifelong animal partners that make you stronger, and is extremely rare. not only that; their spirit animals are all Great Beasts—the most powerful kind of spirit animals that exist. They are the Four Fallen-the ones that died in the great battle against the Devourer. They have risen-but so has the Devourer. The four young kids are recruited by the Greencloaks to help fight evil, and defend the four corners of Erdas. They must come together and try to somehow stop the battles going on and the Devourer-before it is too late. In an enjoyable first book, The Spirit Animals series starts of with a mission to get the talismans before the enemy does. What I thought about this book: I thought this book was an exciting start to the series. It was enjoyable, and the world, characters, and plot that are created make for a great story. Brandon Mull’s writing was great, and the concept of this book was very unique and cool. I want a spirit animal! This book was slow at times, but the ending made up for all of it. The ending was breathtaking and sad, but it was the perfect ending. After I read it, I definitely wanted to continue the series. I can’t wait to read more Brandon Mull and Spirit Animals!

It is one of my favorite books, I definataly recommend it and I would totally rate 5 out of 5 stars. P.S. sorry about the bad spelling.

I thinking this book is cool because I really want to read, and I want to give this book 20 stars.

I NATVE AMERICAN SO I WANT TO READ THIS BOOK
