When Silas Heap unSeals a forgotten room in the Palace, he releases the ghost of a Queen who lived five hundred years earlier. Queen Etheldredda is as awful in death as she was in life, and she's still up to no good. Her diabolical plan to give herself everlasting life requires Jenna's compliance, Septimus's disappearance, and the talents of her son, Marcellus Pye, a famous Alchemist and Physician. And if Queen Etheldredda's plot involves Jenna and Septimus, then it will surely involve Nicko, Alther Mella, Marcia Overstrand, Beetle, Stanley, Sarah, Silas, Spit Fyre, Aunt Zelda, and all of the other wacky, wonderful characters that made magyk and flyte so memorable.With heart-stopping action and a dash of humor, Angie Sage continues the fantastical journey of Septimus Heap.

Review of 'Septimus Heap, Book Three' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Sage develops a new and much more menacing nemesis in the third of a projected seven Septimus Heap novels. The children are pretty much left to sort things out on their own and manage to get into more trouble than they started with before the story is ended but good guys suffer more seriously than previously, too. A more serious book, then - but not devoid of humour, including possibly the funniest dragon I've ever read about. For the first time a genuine cliff-hanger is left at the end. Book four is out in hardback....
