The Wingfeather Saga

My son has heard all the books in audio and was so ecstatic for the series, honestly so was I. He, as the rest of us we enamored by the animation and so excited to see this story come to life visually. Even my younger kids that didn't hear the audio book where glued to the tv. The voice acting was spot on, the animation style was breathtaking . The story was true to the source material. With so many inappropriate kid shows out there I am glad this wholesome show was created so they could have something good to watch without me having to worry about what will pop up next. We can't wait to see the future episodes.

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 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'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.
