The Magician
by: Michael Scott
It’s time for Sophie to learn the second
elemental magic: Fire Magic. And there’s only one man who can teach it to her:
Flamel’s old
student, the Comte de Saint-Germain-alchemist, magician, and rock star. Josh and Sophie Newman are the
world’s only hope-if they don’t turn on each other first.
My Thoughts:
I wasn't sure if I wanted to read this book, infact I wasnt even planning on reading it at all. Then a friend of mine was talking to me, about how its one off her favorite series,and how no one else who she talks to on a regular basis has read it. I told her I would, and another friend said she would too.
Its a very fast paced novel, like its predessessor, The Alchemist, and draws you in, making you feel like you have to read more. I spent many late nights with this book. I enjoyed it a lot, and even though I wanted to yell at Josh, in the end, I am continuously scouting the library for the third book in this amazing series.
I enjoyed this book. It is not a stand alone novel, so I highly suggest that you read the first novel The Alchemist before reading this book.
I won't say much more, or else I will spoil most of the book. :)

Overview:
After fleeing Ojai, Nicholas, Sophie, Josh, and Scatty emerge in Paris, the City of
Lights. Home for Nicholas Flamel. Only this
homecoming is anything but sweet. Perenelle is still locked
up back in Alcatraz and Paris is teeming with enemies.
Niccolo Machiavelli, immortal author
and celebrated art collector, is working for Dee. He’s after them, and time is
running out for Nicholas and Perenelle.
For every day spent without the Book of Abraham the Mage, they
age one year-their magic becoming weaker and their bodies more frail. For Flamel, the
Prophecy is becoming more and more clear.
