New York Times Bestselling Series
"Breezy charm, gusts of spectacular Magyk and a buoyant plot combining drama and comedy in just the right proportions." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"The Septimus Heap series remains one of the best outcomes of the young-wizard furor catalyzed by Harry Potter." --ALA Booklist
There's trouble at the Castle, and it's all because Merrin Meredith has returned with Darke plans for Septimus. More trouble awaits Septimus and Jenna in the form of Tertius Fume, the ghost of the very first Chief Hermetic Scribe, who is determined to send Septimus on a deadly Queste. But Septimus and Jenna have other plans--they are headed for the mysterious House of Foryx, a place where all Time meets and the place where they fervently hope they will be able to find Nicko and Snorri, who were trapped back in time in Physik. But how will Septimus escape the Queste?
I really enjoy Angie Sage's writing. Suitable for kids, and I guess I am still a kid at 61 because I'm really enjoying this series. I do recommend reading the books in order, though it's not absolutely necessary. Queste is just as much fun as the first three books were. Magyk is the first one - start there, and then you'll be hooked just like me. :)

The first three books, in order are: Magyk Flyte Physik In order to fully appreciate book four, I would recommend reading the three preceding books first, to make sure that you don't miss a thing. The main character is Septimus Heap, the seventh son of a seventh son, apprenticed to the Extra-Ordinary Wizard, and always finding himself...
