The Magician

The Magician is the second book of the series The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel This time they are in Paris the city where Nicholas was born. It was published on 2008 and like the first book it received many positive reviews.

The good
.Like the first it is humourous and packed with adventures
.I really like the combination of Machiavelli and Dee(It was funny seeing them together)

The bad
.Mars died without any fighting scene while the legendary Nidhogg and the was pathetic.SPOILER ALERT (I mean the Nidhogg was defeated just like that I know it was stabbed by Clarent but still it was like the monster was nothing)

Quick summary
They have escaped Dee in Ojai and went to Paris but Paris is now full of people working for the darkelders.Nicholas managed to get some help thanks to Saint German (a student of nicholas once)and his wife Joan of Arc(a friend of Scathach)Nicholas gives Clarent to josh to protect himself and Saint German teaches Sophie the magic of fire.......................Buy the book if you want to know what happens.

The conclusion
The Magian is a book filled with adventures,humour,Legendary myth creatures and long dead famous people the book is fun to read again and again but I still thinks the timeline is riculous I mean all that happen in two or three days.it is still avery good book which sets me more expectation for the next book.

Rating:8 out of 10
