Physik: Septimus Heap Book 3 (Rejacketed)

Description

Enter the world of Septimus Heap, Wizard Apprentice. Magyk is his destiny. When Silas Heap unseals a forgotten room in the Palace, he releases the ghost of a Queen who lived five hundred years earlier. Queen Etheldredda is as awful in death as she was in life, and she's still up to no good. Her diabolical plan to give herself ever-lasting life requires Jenna's compliance, Septimus's disappearance, and the talents of her son, Marcellus Pye, a famous Alchemist and Physician. And if Queen Etheldredda's plot involves Jenna and Septimus, then Dark adventure awaits . . . With heart-stopping action and Magykal wit, Angie Sage continues the fantastical journey of Septimus Heap.

Angie Sage began her career illustrating books, and then started writing - first toddler books, later chapter books and then the masterful Septimus Heap. She lives in a fifteenth-century house in Somerset. She has two grown-up daughters. http://www.angiesage.com/ www.facebook.com/SeptimusHeapUK
