Nicholas Flamel appeared in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter -- but did you know he really lived? And he might still be alive today! Discover the truth in Michael Scott's New York Times bestselling series the Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel with The Alchemyst, book one. The truth: Nicholas Flamel was born in Paris on September 28, 1330. The legend: Nicholas Flamel discovered the secret of eternal life. The records show that he died in 1418. But his tomb is empty. Nicholas Flamel lives. But only because he has been making the elixir of life for centuries. The secret of eternal life is hidden within the book he protects -- the Book of Abraham the Mage. It's the most powerful book that has ever existed. In the wrong hands, it will destroy the world. That's exactly what Dr. John Dee plans to do when he steals it. Humankind won't know what's happening until it's too late. And if the prophecy is right, Sophie and Josh Newman are the only ones with the power to save the world as we know it. Sometimes legends are true. And Sophie and Josh Newman are about to find themselves in the middle of the greatest legend of all time. "[A] A riveting fantasy... While there is plenty here to send readers rushing to their encyclopedias... those who read the book at face value will simply be caught up in the enthralling story. A fabulous read." -- SLJ, Starred Read the whole series! The Alchemyst The Magician The Sorceress The Necromancer The Warlock The EnchantressFrom the Hardcover edition. |
