The Wingfeather Saga

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.

Such an important story!!! The Wingfeather Saga was the first novel series my 10 year old daughter fell in love with while she listened to us read it to her, and I kept luring her into confidence until she finally started reading it herself. She looks at the maps and memorizes all the details.

She waited in anticipation, and she was thrilled to see the show. The storyline is so deep and sweet for kids as well. We just finished the first episode, and we will watch all the other ones that come out! The animation is unique and creative and just took me a minute to get used to and then I loved it. It's really beautifull.

I and my family absolutely LOVE The Wingfeather Saga first episode. We waited for months for the first episode. We weren't disappointed. We can't wait for episode 2. The animation is pure art. It's beautiful. And we like the music as well. The characters are fun and interesting. I am looking forward to the series exploring them deeper. This is just so well done. It was worth the wait. I have not read the book set The Wingfeather Saga, but I am certainly going to read it now. What a magnificent idea to turn this book series into a television series. Brilliant. I will definitely be telling everyone I know to watch.

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?! 👏 👏👏

I've only read the first book of this series with my daughter and we both loved it. It's an excellent story, well told with wonderful characters, and a placed in a charming world.

The first episode of the TV show attempts to bring us into the world Peterson so wonderfully wrote, and it ends up (by the end of the first episode) feeling rushed and uneven.

It deviates pretty strongly from the book in some key areas-notably the character introductions-and makes me worry a bit for how it will handle the narrative going forward. Already, the discovery of the dangers of Glipwood Forest has been subverted by an intro that was far different in the book and better done in the short film.

There are also audio mixing issues where the voices don't always clear the mix and come out muddled and incomprehensible. The music is also mixed poorly and feels too rote in places and ill fitting in others.

Perhaps I expected too much from the animation after the short film, but I felt a little let down initially. Thankfully, it's done well enough that I was drawn in and enjoyed it after readjusting my expectations. The character designs are excellent and the voice actors do a great job with their characters.

Criticisms aside, there is so much potential in this show already and I am looking forward to seeing the rest of this season and reading the other books with my daughter soon.
