Magyk (Septimus Heap #1)

Author(s): Angie Sage Illustrated by Mark Zug

Junior Fiction

The first book in a spellbinding adventure series featuring cunning, deception, quirky characters, clever charms and lots of humour.

A baby girl is rescued from a snowy path in the woods. A baby boy is stillborn. A young Queen is taken ill. An ExtraOrdinary Wizard mysteriously resigns from his post. And all on the same night. A string of events, seemingly unconnected, begins to converge ten years later, when the Heap family receive a knock at the door. The evil Necromancer DomDaniel is plotting his comeback and a Major Obstacle resides in the Heap family. Life as they know it is about to change, and the most fantastically fast-paced adventure of confused identities, Magyk and Mayhem, begin.
