The Wingfeather Saga

Once, in a great while a show comes along where young and old look forward to watching together. Wingfeather is such a show.

The story immediately draws the family in and the animation is completely different than anything we've seen before. It seems like every frame is a piece of art.

Our 11 year old, who read the books, ended up buying wingfeather shirts for himself because he is deeply into the story. I think he has read the books twice. He is so excited for the show and he's struggling to avoid spoilers. "I want to be able to talk to the rest of the family about it!" He said.

So, tonight we all watched the livestream of episode one together. We will be there in two weeks for episode two!

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!

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.

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.

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.
