Description

In the sixth installment of the internationally bestselling Septimus Heap series, Septimus must battle the remnants of Darke Domaine, which still wreak havoc in the Castle. He faces a perilous quest to find Nicko and Snorri, who have been trapped back in time. With Alther Mella Banished, a Darke Domaine engulfing the Castle, and a Darke dragon on the loose, Septimus, along with Jenna, Alther Mella, Marcellus Pye, and his estranged brother, Simon Heap, must use all their skills to save the Castle and Wizard Tower. Septimus and Marcia Overstrand battle the spreading Darkenesse to protect their Magykal world. The book, written with Angie Sage's characteristic flair, is a compelling fantasy adventure filled with surprises, thrills, and laugh-out-loud moments, where readers realize the wisdom of Magyk—that all things are part of a living whole.
