Description
Dark magic and fast-paced adventure await in this second book of the New York Times bestselling series The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel. Now published with an exciting new cover and an introduction from the author!
Ashes to ashes . . .
California - The book of Abraham the Mage holds the secret of eternal life, a secret more dangerous than any one man should possess. Dr. John Dee is two pages away from the knowledge that would bring the Dark Elders into ultimate power and could mean the destruction of the world as we know it.
Two people stand in his way: Josh and Sophie Newman.
Paris - Time is running out for Nicholas Flamel and his wife Perenelle. Every day they spend without the book, they age one year; their magic becomes weaker and their bodies more frail. Niccolo Machiavelli, immortal author and celebrated art collector, works for Dee and is in hot pursuit of them. Flamel knows there's no time to lose, and Sophie must learn about Fire Magic...
Josh and Sophie are the world's only hope – if they don't turn on each other first.
