4 posts | 7 read
Dive, run, and soar through this exhilarating special edition in the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling series, with a story by WILD BORN author, Brandon Mull. Briggan the Wolf, Uraza the Leopard, Jhi the Panda, and Essix the Falcon -- the Four Fallen. Long before they were spirit animals, they roamed the wilds as Great Beasts, the most powerful beings in Erdas. When a mad king arose, the four banded together with an army of humans and animals to defeat him. But they weren't the only Great Beasts in the war. A deadly scheme was already underway, hatched by two of their own. To save their world, the four had to give up their lives. These are the lost stories of the most selfless acts of bravery that Erdas has ever seen, and the secret betrayal that started it all. These are TALES OF THE GREAT BEASTS.

A quibble - this is listed as 0.6 in the Spirit Animals series, but it‘s really more of a prequel to the sequel series (Spirit Animals: Fall of the Beasts). It does its job setting up the new series/bridging the original and sequel series by introducing the new characters, but each of the short stories basically follows the same arc.

A collection of prequel short stories for the Spirit Animals series. I thought the story about the creation of the bile was good as well as the last story about the council of Great Beasts were especially good at further fleshing out the world. Overall, I don‘t think they were the most memorable, though.

Really enjoyed this collection of short stories set before the first Spirit Animals book. I wish the stories were a bit longer though, especially the last one. I feel like the action was kind of rushed to make it fit a certain work count or something. I would recommend it for fans of the Spirit Animals series but it probably won‘t be as enjoyable if you haven‘t read the main series already.
