Teen Review by Lauren. . .The Necromancer by Michael Scott

The next installment of Michael Scott's great series begins with Scatty and Joan stuck in a prehistoric time (right?), with Saint Germain desperately trying to rescue them, no matter the cost (and he's not the only one looking). Dr. John Dee has been declared an outcast and a wanted man by his Elders, and is preparing to disappear (or he might have a different option in mind). Sophie and Josh are just hoping for a break, and Nicholas and Perenelle are getting ready to fight.

Full of twists and turns, the twins' adventures continue as Josh learns the Magic of Fire, and Sophie is still coming to terms with the Witch's memories. Complex rebellions are unfolding, as well as battle plans, though not always where you would expect. Alliances are changing and truths are uncovered. This book can certainly be described as "unputdownable."
