Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Theodosia Throckmorton is in a fix. Allowed to attend a reception given by one of the directors of her parents museum, she stumbles across Mr. Tetley of the British Museum—in most unusual circumstances! Since Theo has last seen him in a showdown in an ancient Egyptian tomb, his reappearance could mean only one thing: the Serpents of Chaos are back.

Once again Theodosia will have to take on secret societies, evil curses, and dark magic too sinister to imagine, especially if it falls into the wrong hands. Blocked at every turn, Theodosia will have to rely on her own skill and cunning—along with a little help from the most unexpected places.

Synopsis:

Nate Fludd is back in the camel saddle in pursuit of a missing, deadly basiliskthe King of Serpents. As if saving a Dhughani village from the beast isnt hard enough, Nate and Aunt Phil must begin to solve the mystery of his parents disappearance and protect The Fludd Book of Beasts from a sinister man who always seems to be one step ahead of them. This is the perfect adventure for boys and girls not quite ready for longer texts.

Synopsis:

Being able to detect black magic isnt all tea and crumpetsand for Theodosia Throckmorton, it can be a decidedly tricky business! When Sticky Will drags Theo to a magic show featuring the Great Awi Bubu, she quickly senses there is more to the magician than he lets on . . . 

     Meanwhile, back at the Museum of Legends and Antiquities, Henry is home for the spring holidays and discovers an artifact that alchemists have been hunting for centuries. Soon, every occultist in London is after it.
