This is the 4th novel in the Fablehaven series so make sure you’ve read the other books first starting with Fablehaven. This series is family friendly and appeals to all ages. This book started at school of all things and with magic, one should always expect there to be unpleasant surprises. In Kendra’s case she learned the hard way by

Grip Of The Shadow Plague

This is the third book in the Fablehaven series so make sure you have read the other books first. This book takes a more serious tone than the previous ones.

Meg Cabot is mostly famous for her Princess Diaries books which I have never actually read. I did see the movies though which while interesting are not my type of books.
