Amulet graphic novel series follows Emily and Navin's journey into a fantastical world with robots, talking animals, and Emily's destiny as a Stonekeeper. Review: One of the best fantasy “novels” I’ve read in one or two decades. - I was not sure of what I bought, when I bought this. The juvenile art style made me think this was going to be another generic action fantasy for kids. But, boy was I wrong ! Right from the first pages I was hooked, the characters were appealing and the world building started to be noticed on the first volume alone. By the time I reached book 3 I was thinking this was one of the best fantasy stories I’ve came across in a decade or two. The open world feel of the locations, the steampunk imagination in a cross between Miyazaki and maybe Moebius , the character development and the twists make for an exciting read. No mater what age you are. It’s too bad many people will think this is just for kids when it’s actually for any age if you love good written fantasy stories. I don’t think I ever came across a fantasy work “for kids” with such a broad appeal since I read the “Neverending Story” novel by Michael Ende many years ago. Don’t let the kiddie visual style fool you, this series is fantastic and it’s more mature than 99% of what comes out of Marvel or DC stuff these days. The story is epic, the characters are unforgettable and the world building is just awesome. It’s true, this box does not have the last volume of the story which is going to come out in 2024, but don’t let that be an excuse not to buy this set now. Get it. If you love fantasy you will be surprised. I’m 54 years old and I put this graphic novels among any of the fantasy classics out there. Just brilliant. Review: Amulet box set - After reading book 1, my 8 year old was desperate to read the next in the series. The box set was the best value for money! Great illustrations and exciting storyline.

My son loved them
My son read the first 2 books in his native language translation. But loved them so much he asked me to look for the other books and buy them in English. He was very happy to get them and hardly put them down before finishing them all.

Not great quality
Son (10years old) LOVES the stories! Not put them down since getting them. Slightly disappointed with the quality though. We had to re check that ut was a setthaf I had ordered as several pages are creased and bashed on the corners. Can't be sure if it's due to delivery or the product. However the box that stores them is just made of thin card so this won't help. However as said son loves the books, but I may have been tempted to buy from a shop if bought again to check the set.

Dopo averli conosciuti nella biblioteca della scuola, i miei figli li hanno chiesti e li hanno letti e riletti un'infinità di volte. In lingua inglese, sono adatti per imparare la lingua con una lettura divertente.
