The secret of eternal life has been stolen.
Nicholas Flamel, legendary alchemyst, still lives—and guards the powerful Book of Abraham the Mage. But when evil sorcerer Dr. John Dee steals it, the world is at risk. Only teenage twins Sophie and Josh Newman stand between humanity and destruction. Caught in an ancient prophecy, they must awaken their hidden powers before it's too late.

Action-packed and full of myth, magic, and mystery—sometimes legends are true.
