Plot introduction

At the end of the school year Kendra finds a goblin, or, as she finds out, a kobold, that infiltrated her eighth grade. She can see without magical milk because the year before the fairies kissed her and gave her that power. To her he seems ugly but to everyone else he seems like every girl's dream. She knows this has problems written all over it. At the end of the day a man named Errol is just outside their school door saying he can get rid of the problem for them. Seth must get a magical item from a mortuary that is age protected from 13 and older. Seth is the only one that can enter. When he gets the item it bites him and teeth marks are left in his skin. After the last day the man says he needs help himself Kendra is not so sure and calls her Grandpa Sorenson. He says that a ride is coming for them. So Seth and Kendra wait and wait until it shows up and the man's car and a few of his friends attack them. They get away and get to the preserve safely and in a short two hours.

The Society of the Evening Star, an ancient organization determined to overthrow magical preserves and use them for their own intents and purposes, is determined to infiltrate Fablehaven. Worst yet, word is abroad that the Society of the Evening Star is rising and working its mischief faster than ever. Preserves are falling at an alarming rate. Grandpa Sorenson
Stanley Sorenson
Stanley Sorenson also known as Grandpa Sorenson is a main character in Brandon Mull's fantasy series Fablehaven.-Fablehaven:Grandpa Sorenson is Kendra and Seth's grandfather on their father's side. He is the caretaker of Fablehaven...

, the caretaker, invites three specialists approved by the mysterious Sphinx to help around the property: "Tanu" the Potion Master, Coulter, a magical relics collector and old friend, and Vanessa, a mystical creature trapper. In addition, these three specialists have a more perilous assignment— to find an artifact of great power hidden on the property that is a key to the great demon prison, Zzyzx. Zzyzx houses hundreds of thousands of the worst demons. Should Zzyzx open, the world as they know would end.

The Sphinx meets with Kendra first. After giving Kendra an uncharged magical object, he determines her fairykind, and not "very kind." Being fairykind is a completely unusual thing that hadn't happened for centuries. Then, the Sphinx speaks to Seth and explains that Olloch the Glutton will prove perilous to Seth as long as it exists.

When Olloch the Glutton pervades the gates of Fablehaven, all evidence points towards the fact that someone inside the preserve is a mole and a traitor. Which of the three visitors is it? If the artifact falls into the wrong hands, it could mean the downfall of other preserves and possibly the world. With good intent, Kendra and Seth become both a help and hindrance to their grandfather’s cry to protect Fablehaven.

Coulter woke Seth and persuaded him to come to an extremely dangerous portion of Fablehaven, where Warren lost his mind. In the morning at the house, Kendra is thoroughly depressed about the supposed death of her brother. Grandpa finally resolves that Coulter was not acting of his own agency because his plan was so clumsy. That night, Dale was caught in the Thief's Net guarding an artificial key. Dale had went to sleep and woke up there. Suddenly, all the evidence matched up and the traitor seized control of the house.

In order to save their family, friends, the preserve, and ultimately the world, Kendra and Seth must take huge risks they would never have dreamed of doing had the situation been less perilous. The fate of the world rested on their shoulders.
