Publisher Description

The second book in the internationally bestselling Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage, featuring the funny and fantastic adventures of a  wizard apprentice and his quest to become an ExtraOrdinary Wizard.

New York Times Bestselling Series

“Terrifically entertaining. Fans of the first book will be delighted with this sequel to Septimus’s story.” —VOYA (starred review)

“Readers will find themselves quickly immersed in this imaginative world, moving from one well-crafted adventure to another at a suspenseful pace.” —School Library Journal

It's been a year since Septimus Heap discovered his real family and true calling to be a wizard. As Apprentice to ExtraOrdinary Wizard Marcia Overstrand, he is learning the fine arts of Conjurations, Charms, and other Magyk, while Jenna is adapting to life as the Princess and enjoying the freedom of the Castle.

But there is something sinister at work. Marcia is constantly trailed by a menacing Darke Shadow, and Septimus's brother Simon seems bent on a revenge no one understands. Why is the Darke Magyk still lingering?

Bringing fantasy to new heights, Angie Sage continues the journey of Septimus Heap with her trademark humor and all of the clever details readers have come to love.

"This second book of the Septimus Heap series started out slow for me. I wasn't as quickly enchanted as in book one, but after awhile Sage's inventiveness and creative, believable twists caught me up again. Fun, sometimes hair-raising read aimed at middle grade."

— Patricia (4 out of 5 stars)

    " The book is great! Angie Sage is a superb writer. However, I don't think, that Gerard Doyle get all the caracters right. Especially Beetle has a too deep voice for a young teenager. But Marcia was better than in the first book. "

    " What a wonderful sequal! In the same style as Magyk, with the same loveable characters (and a few new ones:D) It makes me want to play counterfeet. The best stuff, however, cannot be written do to the fact that it would give the plot away. "
