Description

In the fifth book of the Septimus Heap series, Septimus and his friends find themselves stranded on a mysterious and beautiful island with a badly injured dragon, Spit Fyre. Together with Jenna and Beetle, they encounter a Magykal girl named Syrah, a cat-shaped lighthouse that has lost its Light, and a strange presence that sings to Septimus. Meanwhile, Lucy and Wolf Boy face troubles with nefarious sailors at sea, and Milo Banda, Jenna’s father, deals with a mysterious treasure chest on his ship. Author Angie Sage continues the enchanting adventure with laugh-out-loud moments, magical charms, and a deeper exploration of the young hero's internal journey.
