The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel

by Michael Scott

He holds the secret that can end the world.
The truth: Nicholas Flamel was born in Paris on September 28, 1330. Nearly 700 years later, he is acknowledged as the greatest Alchemyst of his day. It is said that he discovered the secret of eternal life.
The records show that he died in 1418.
But his tomb is empty.
The legend: Nicholas Flamel lives. But only because he has been making the elixir of life for centuries. The secret of eternal life is hidden within the book he protects—the Book of Abraham the Mage. It's the most powerful book that has ever existed. In the wrong hands, it will destroy the world. That's exactly what Dr. John Dee plans to do when he steals it. Humankind won't know what's happening until it's too late. And if the prophecy is right, Sophie and Josh Newman are the only ones with the power to save the world as we know it.
Sometimes legends are true.
And Sophie and Josh Newman are about to find themselves in the middle of the greatest legend of all time.

  1. Through out the book there were some interesting parts, and some parts I didn’t care for as much. The most interesting part for me, was in the beginning when Josh Newman ripped the last few pages out of the Book of Abraham the Mage. This turned the whole book around. If Josh didn’t rip out the pages Dr. John Lee would have taken over the world with the elders. Also, lot’s of people would have died such as Nicholas Flamel. This book had some very entertaining parts in it that grabbed my attention, and even if it’s not my favorite book it certainly is a good book.
