Septimus Heap: Magyk

Young Fiction Forum

The 7th son of the 7th son, aptly named Septimus Heap, is stolen the night he is born by a midwife who pronounces him dead. That same night, the baby's father, Silas Heap, comes across a bundle in the snow containing a newborn girl with violet eyes. The Heaps take this helpless newborn into their home, name her Jenna, and raise her as their own. But who is this mysterious baby girl, and what really happened to their beloved son, Septimus?

The first part of this enthralling new series leads readers on a fantastic journey filled with quirky characters, clever charms, potions and spells, and a yearning to uncover the mystery at the heart of this story...who is Septimus Heap?

I got this book last week. It sounded like a good book to put away for the kids. I liked it. It was good. It took me maybe half a second to figure out who Septimus Heap really was, but I think that kids will love it.

Book two Flyte is out now.

I just went to amazon.com and look at both book one, and two. I added them to my 'wishlist' Man, I can't believe how many items I have on there.

Anyway, I think that both books sound like they would be a decent addition to my ever-growing collection of books. Thanks Sher!

Have anyone joined the Science Fiction Book Club? I did, and they run great specials. I always wait for the $1.99 shipping for orders of $25 or more. Man, I love that place. IF anyone joins, let me know and use me as a referral. I get two free books off my wishlist.
