The Wingfeather Saga

My son and I love the Wingfeather Saga books and were very excited to see the animated take on the series. Introducing characters and settings for the first time is always challenging and these books have a lot of vibrant imagery in the descriptions to portray. It took a minute or two for me to adjust my mental pictures to what was being portrayed by the artists, but I found myself quickly swept into the story and the animation style grew on me as we met more characters - especially the dragons!

I am definitely looking forward to seeing the next episode and watching the story unfold - perhaps even more now than initially.

Though I will always recommend the books first, this animated representation is engaging, unique, elegant, and intriguing - much like the books!

I have enjoyed reading this series with my children and enjoyed watching this show just as much! It's a thrilling family adventure filled with mystery, action, adventure, and a compelling narrative. I'm so thankful for Andrew Peterson and his team for bringing this to the screen.

The voice talent brings these characters to life in a fun way. The writers have set a nice pace for world building for an adventure that has twist and turns filled with a wonderful and magical land.

The music is riveting and filled with the talented Andrew Peterson.

I hope the show gets a full run and allows many to experience a needed story.

Just watched the first episode, and fell in live all over again! Great introduction to the characters and the artwork is so great! It really brings you into the town of Glipwood. The introduction of the different creatures right at the start gets you so excited to see more of this incredible world. The voice acting is very well done and is exactly in the tone of the expected feeling from the books. The singing in the books has always been interesting and we were not disappointed with the performances in the first episode! There is so much more in store in this epic story, and my family is incredibly excited to follow along.

I love the Wingfeather Saga books, and when I heard that they were making it into a show, I was excited! I was a bit concerned that the show might deviate from the books too much, because I hate it when movies and shows do that. And the show does deviate from the books a bit - and somehow, I'm okay with that! (mostly!) Although the order of events and details (and a couple of bigger moments) changed, the story goes in the same direction and the CHARACTERS stay true to the books. This is huge!

And as for the show itself - it's amazing! We've watched each episode over and over, and my kids act it out all the time! It's one of the most beautiful shows I've ever seen (I hope I can get prints of the backgrounds!), the voice actors did an amazing job, the animators are incredible, and I could listen to the music all day... and I often do. I highly recommend it!

I don't have words to describe how I feel! Everything was beautiful! The characters. The background paintings. The props. The Fangs!!!

Andrew Peterson, Chris Wall, Keith Lango, Ron Smith, The Arcadian Wild, Kurt Heinecke, and everyone else involved have done the impossible. They took the best book series ever and translated it wonderfully to the screen.

All the creatures look phenomenal. Bumpy Digtoad, Fazzle Dove, Thwaps, Toothy Cow, and Sea Dragons!! Just amazing!

Every character was perfectly cast. They all sound just as I imagined them to.

I do not have words. I just don't.

And can we just give a round of applause to Kurt and The Arcadian Wild for the beautiful, amazing score?! 👏 👏👏
