"Yates...has brought some of his old Potter crew with him and gives this new machine a steady, smooth hand."--New York Times"The result is an effective if not everlasting magical spell."--Richard Roeper"...is best at capturing a world out of balance and an unease that's as timely as today's tweets."--Rolling Stone"Whether you're a Potterhead or not, Beasts creates a story that's both original and enchanting."--USA Today

Summary
It opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident, were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of Newt's fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds
