i read the rest of these when i was eleven but i couldnt find this one, ntil recently when i reread the whole series. they were and still are one of my favourite series, and i still find them enjoyable even though im older than the target audience now. i like the writing style and the characters and the world building and all the random funny comments.

Septimus, Beetle, Jenna and Ullr go to the House of Foryx to rescue Nicko and Snorri, who were left in another time during the last book in the series. Another good installment of fantasy. ( )

The fourth Septimus Heap outing sees Sep and Jenna on a mission to rescue a family member. Sage seems to be becoming more assured as time goes on but weirdly this actually detracts from the main points in favour of her early works: her humour and her crazy leap-all-over-the-place plotting. This means that Queste is a fairly generic novel of kids on a magical adventure and a slight disappointment. ( )
