The Sorceress
by Michael Scott
The Sorceress is the third book in the series "The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel." The first two books are The Alchemyst and The Magician. They are a young adult fantasy series. I love them! They incorporate real people and fantasy characters into a huge battle for the fate of our world and the human race.
The whole story line focuses around Nicholas and Pernelle Flamel, famous alchemists (real people) during the 1600s. They have discovered the secret of immortality and are searching for the twins of prophecy who will help save the world. Present day, they own a bookstore in San Francisco. They meet Josh & Sophie Newman, and believe they are the twins they have been searching for.
Convincing them of this, teaching them the magic of the elements, and preparing them for the battles that lie ahead seems like it might take awhile, but must happen FAST, because the dark forces are closing in. The three books take place over about one week. No wonder the twins often doubt what's happening and their role in things.
The books are fast paced, interesting, and filled with wondrous and mysterious things. I am anxiously awaiting the next book in the series, The Necromancer, due soon!
