Sophie, Josh, Nicholas, and Scatty retreat to Paris after the disaster on the West Coast. They arrive inside the Basilique du Sacré-Coeur. For Nicholas, he's returning home, but he hasn't been there for hundreds of years. Everything's changed.

Dr. Dee hasn't wasted any time; he immediately called for reinforcements - Machiavelli is already in Paris and waiting for them. With Sophie's newly awakened powers, they are able to escape. Nicholas leads them to the home of his old student. There, they regroup, rest, and recharge.

Once Dr. Dee arrives in Paris things begin to happen. He wants to capture the twins plus the last two pages of the codex, and he's willing to do anything to catch them.

The twins fight back, along with Nicholas, Scatty, Francis, and Joan of Arc. Together they make a stand, but is it enough to stop the powerful Magician?

Michael Scott blends mystery, fantasy, and history perfectly together into an adrenaline-filled, addicting novel.

This book was so exciting!!! It was much better then the first book, The Alchemyst. This book had me up way past my bedtime. I was yearning to know what happened next and when I put the book down, I couldn't stop thinking about it. This is one of the best books I have read in a long time.

Well, it just keeps getting better. This is the second book in the series which began with 'The Alchemyst'. The tale continues to unfold, the good is holding on by the wisp of an aura while evil continues to pursue total world domination!

The characters continue to mature and become more real as the story comes fast and furiously. I really am emjoying the addition of historical figures in this book who become an important part of the plot.

While you are in this world, you feel as though you are a part of it. I cannot wait to read the next installment! I guess there isn't a better compliment to fantasy journeys than that!!! Enjoy, everyone!
