At thirteen years old, Tom and Emily Man had long since given up believing their Grandfather's stories of the magical land of Amaranth. If you were to ask them if they believed in witches, wizards, and friendly trolls, they'd both say "no". They definitely wouldn’t believe in the most terrible and horrifying of all demons, even if he was mentioned in ancient manuscripts in their own world.

And if you were to then throw in kidnapping, stolen paintings, bloody battles, and even a spot of big green romance into the mix and tell them they’d be involved in it all, they’d begin to think you an idiot, and Emily might even tell you as much.

Ironically, as thirteen was the age of magical maturity, it was when they’d finally get to visit Amaranth - but they didn't believe. Luckily, getting to Amaranth involves being flung over the edge of a very high and very steep waterfall, and believing has absolutely nothing to do with it. You can’t help but believe when you’re there. When you see it for yourself, you believe everything.

Amaranth is a tale of adventure, mystery, and friendship. It describes how events in this world have reverberations in another and addresses the emotions and feelings that children experience wherever they may be.

The day the rains came was like any other, blistering air coating the canyon in a heavy stillness. Just as the rains come after ten long, dry years, a young wizard, Wayland North, appears to whisk Sydelle Mirabil away from her desert village. North needs an assistant, and Sydelle is eager to see the country and to join him on his quest to stop the war that surely will destroy her home.

But North has secrets — about himself, about why he chose Sydelle, about his real reasons for the journey. What does he want from her? And why does North's sworn enemy seem fascinated by Sydelle herself?

Through a journey that spans a country, magic and hard-won romance are woven together with precision and brilliant design by a first-time novelist.

Physik is the third book in the internationally bestselling Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage. It features the funny and fantastic adventures of a wizard apprentice and his quest to become an ExtraOrdinary Wizard.

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 everlasting life requires Jenna's compliance, Septimus's disappearance, and the talents of her son, Marcellus Pye, a famous Alchemist and Physician.

If Queen Etheldredda's plot involves Jenna and Septimus, then it will surely involve Nicko, Alther Mella, Marcia Overstrand, Beetle, Stanley, Sarah, Silas, Spit Fyre, Aunt Zelda, and all of the other wacky, wonderful characters that made Magyk and Flyte so memorable.

With heart-stopping action and a dash of humor, Angie Sage continues the fantastical journey of Septimus Heap.
