Beast Quest is a bestselling series of children's fantasy
novels produced by Working Partners Ltd and written by several authors all
using the house name Adam Blade. An editorial team at Working Partners first
creates the storyline for each book and "then approach a number of writers
whose experience and style we think might suit the project and ask them to
write a sample – usually the first three chapters of the book.
The series is published by Orchard Books in the UK and by
Scholastic Corporation in the US and is aimed largely at boys aged 7 and over. The
novels have been described as "clearly and simply written, the
right balance between adventure and storytelling" and a "great series
to get lads, who normally wouldn't be, interested in reading."
Kathryn Flett, writing in London's The Observer, has called
the books "almost certainly a work of publishing
genius. The books are among the most-borrowed from UK lending libraries.
