The Forbidden Mountain

Book •
Brandon Mull's 'The Forbidden Mountain' launches the Guardians trilogy, positioning itself as an accessible epic-fantasy tale told through young protagonists who form bonds with powerful spiritual guardians.

The narrative centers on conflicts between light and darkness and the challenge of rooting out organized evil within society rather than fighting external invaders.

Mull crafts a richly imagined world with escalating stakes across the trilogy, aiming to deliver the payoff and crescendo he is known for in his middle-grade works.

While targeted to middle-grade shelving, the book contains themes and complexity designed to engage older readers who grew up with Mull's earlier series.

It serves both as an entry point for reluctant readers and a satisfying, lengthier read for avid fans.
