I have a love of all things magical and Alchemy is fascinating to me. When I saw this book in our school library I just had to read it. Wonderfully written by Michael Scott he had me sucked in by the very first page. It is about the struggle of Nicholas Flamel The Alchemyst and how he is to save the world with his wife Perenelle and a set of 15 year old twins. Twins Josh and Sophie Newman think that Nicholas is out of his mind. He thinks that they are the twins of legend. The adventure that they go on is out of this world. The characters that they meet along the way and the adventures that they go on will have you begging for more.
I recommended this to my niece Ella (age 11) to read and she was begging for the rest of the series for Christmas. I also have a student that is reading the series and he recommended it to his teacher who is reading it. I love when he comes in to the library after a really crazy turn in the story and the look in his eyes is priceless. Please look, love and get sucked in to the world of The Alchemyst.
