Summary
New York Times bestselling author Kazu Kibuishi says of Lightfall: "Beautifully drawn。 Tim Probert has created a world readers will want to visit。"
In the second installment of the award-winning， critically acclaimed Lightfall series， Bea and Cad continue their quest to stop Kest， the mythic bird who stole the sun。 Perfect for middle grade fans of Amulet and Avatar the Last Airbender， Lightfall: Shadow of the Bird is another breathtaking journey into the magical world of Irpa， where epic battles and powerful creatures abound。
After a battle that nearly cost them their lives， Bea and Cad awaken in the hidden settlement of the Arsai， mysterious creatures who can glimpse into the future。 The Arsai's vision paints a dire picture for their planet， as the bird Kest Ke Belenus--now awoken from a restless slumber--threatens to destroy all the Lights of Irpa。 Desperate for a solution， Bea and Cad seek out the help of a water spirit known as Lorgon， whose ancient wisdom may help them find a way to take down Kest and save Irpa from utter destruction。
But when their time with Lorgon presents more questions than answers， Bea and Cad must decide what's more important 。 。 。 stopping Kest or uncovering the truth。

Again with the absolutely breathtaking illustrations and compelling story， this series hits it out of the park。 What a delightful read （even though it gives me all the feels）。

I'm forever going to be obsessed with these books！ I love the art so much- this one felt even more cinematic- and I'm so excited about the direction the plot is moving in！ I'm also enjoying seeing not just the world mythos expand but also Bea come into her own。 I'm forever going to be obsessed with these books！ I love the art so much- this one felt even more cinematic- and I'm so excited about the direction the plot is moving in！ I'm also enjoying seeing not just the world mythos expand but also Bea come into her own。 。。。more

I loved the illustrations - maybe even more than in the first one - as well as the story。 But this ending… this ending makes me wish I would’ve waited reading this series until all installments are written and published。。 🥲

The art in these books is just so astoundingly beautiful at times that you just want to pause and take it all in。I also like the direction the story is headed。 It's hinting at something that I think could be really intriguing， so I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes with that。 I continue to love Cad and Bea and their relationship， as well as how Bea's anxiety is portrayed in the book。 The secondary characters are winning too， and the world continues to be imaginative and unlike anything I The art in these books is just so astoundingly beautiful at times that you just want to pause and take it all in。I also like the direction the story is headed。 It's hinting at something that I think could be really intriguing， so I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes with that。 I continue to love Cad and Bea and their relationship， as well as how Bea's anxiety is portrayed in the book。 The secondary characters are winning too， and the world continues to be imaginative and unlike anything I've seen before。 。。。more

Stupid cliffhangers！Another amazing addition to what is shaping up to be a highly enjoyable series。 The portrayal of self doubt， depression and fears is easily visible and the over confidence can do as much harm in its own way。 I love the characters unique perspectives and internal struggles that are so relatable even in a world so mystical and beautiful。 Bea has grown so much and yet her confidence isn’t there in full force。 The pacing is really well timed and adds so much to the story。 I found Stupid cliffhangers！Another amazing addition to what is shaping up to be a highly enjoyable series。 The portrayal of self doubt， depression and fears is easily visible and the over confidence can do as much harm in its own way。 I love the characters unique perspectives and internal struggles that are so relatable even in a world so mystical and beautiful。 Bea has grown so much and yet her confidence isn’t there in full force。 The pacing is really well timed and adds so much to the story。 I found I was dragged right back in and couldn’t put the book down。 Very much looking forward to the next instalment。 。。。more

Oh my goodness！ This one was so good！ The artwork was stunning。 I loved seeing the growth of the characters。 This graphic novel was super suspenseful and had some fantastic little twists。 This book does such a great job covering some beautiful themes with such few words。 I loved it。 If you’re on the fence about graphic novels， I encourage you to try this series。 It’s so heartwarming and full of adventure。 I cannot wait for book 3！

Incredibly happy to have gotten my hands on this before it’s official April 26 release date。 Five glowing stars for a superb story & some of the most beautiful illustrations I’ve come across in a graphic novel。Bea has lost her precious light。 She has failed to find her Grandfather。 Her & Cad （and her faithful kitty， Nimm） nearly died in a single battle。 Now， the Arsai predictions are cast against their favor as a great evil awakens & spreads its wings。 A war of darkness & shadow is coming to Irp Incredibly happy to have gotten my hands on this before it’s official April 26 release date。 Five glowing stars for a superb story & some of the most beautiful illustrations I’ve come across in a graphic novel。Bea has lost her precious light。 She has failed to find her Grandfather。 Her & Cad （and her faithful kitty， Nimm） nearly died in a single battle。 Now， the Arsai predictions are cast against their favor as a great evil awakens & spreads its wings。 A war of darkness & shadow is coming to Irpa。Sacrifice， hard choices， courage。 Overcoming anxiety， Bea forges ahead to uncover the mystery of their enemy， Kest， & to ultimately face him。 With her found family of sorts， victory is close… but as understanding dawns， perhaps they are not the heroes they thought they’d be。The Lightfall books are the essence of “Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist， but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten” -Neil Gaiman。 Probert’s Lightfall books have my recommendation & my appreciation。 May he continue to bless the reading world with his imagination & hard work。 。。。more
