A solid return to Rowling’s magical world

To make matters worse, NYC is experiencing sudden, devastating and unexplained events of carnage where buildings are being obliterated. Newt, accompanied by a merry band of companions help to recapture his lost beasts while also attempting to solve the mystery behind these unexplained bouts of carnage.
