Description

Septimus must battle the remnants of the Dark Domaine, which will remain until the power of the evil Two-Faced Ring is destroyed forever. To accomplish that, the ancient Alchemie Fyre must be relit -- a task that sends Septimus to the very origins of Magyk and Physik, testing both his skills, and his loyalties to ExtraOrdinary Wizard, Marcia Overstrand, and Alchemist Marcellus Pye.

Excellent conclusion to the series.

I'm not quite sure how to take this, Angie sage seemed determined to wrap things up but some parts were blatantly sad. I don't want to ruin anything for new readers but when the endings start, don't read the first two-three pages, basically the well loved characters were either killed for no reason

or to make way for a new person. It was also shocking to me that at the end, she starts a new series that intertwined with this one. Why not continue it? That's not to say the book itself wasn't good but because sage was so focused on finishing it, her usual charm and quirkiness were not there. Overall, there was a lot more death and sadness then I would like from, what should be, a happy(and adventurous) tale.

I thought this was a great wrapup to a fun series. Everything tied up neatly after plenty of adventure.

I really hope this isn't the last Septimus book - maybe an adult book? This story did get a little convoluted but I love the characters and was happy to go on whatever journey Sage wanted to take me on.

This book was the very most satisfying conclusion to a series that I have read in a very long time. I liked it better than Harry Potter (GASP).

The Queen to be, the 7th son of the 7th son (Apprentice to the Extra Ordinary Wizard), the former Master Alchemist & several others are forced to Contain &

destroy the Darke Wizards who have escaped their prison.

The past meets the present. The Great Fyre is relit, the Dragon Boat heals and awakens, Septimus returns to the House of Foryx, long overdue sense is regained.....

I was totally in love with series start to finish. It is hard to find this long of a series that can keep me on the edge of my seat for the entire time. I have to say that Angie Sage really pulled the whole series together with Fyre. Any unanswered questions that I had were answered. I will

recommend this series to everyone I meet, It has become one of my all time favorites.

It feels like so many of my favorite series are ending :( I was so excited to get this audiobook because I love the world of Septimus Heap. I think Angie Sage has created an unique and creative magical world and her use of language is just terrific. She has some of the most intelligent humor I've

ever seen in a book intended for this age of child. Sage assumes that the person reading her books is intelligent and never talks down to her audience. I love that. This is one of my top audiobooks so far this year. Gerard Doyle does a fantastic job narrating. I loved seeing Septimus and Jenna grow and take charge of their lives (even though they're just 15). At the end of the day, I was pleased where Sage ended the series (even though I still want more).

If you haven't started these books, I highly recommend them.

I'm sorry to come to the end of this series, though it was a satisfying end. Septimus finally settles into his role as a magic wielder, his family have been reconciled (including Simon, who has fully recovered from his time as a dark magic practicer), and even Marcia & Marcellus are reconciled to

each other and to the way their two powers can work harmoniously with each other. I liked especially the glimpses of technology in this final installment.
