Septimus Heap: The Darke Toad

The New York Times-bestselling author returns to the Magykal world of her "deliciously spellbinding" fantasy series with this eBook exclusive novella ( Kirkus, starred review of Septimus Heap: Magyk).
In this tale that takes place between the stories told in Magykand Flyte, the witches of the Port Witch Coven want DomDaniel's powerful Darke Toad-and will go to ridiculous lengths to get their hands on it. But first, Simon Heap must get his master to the Port Witch Coven's door, which may require a bit more Darke Magyk-and a much stronger stomach-than he bargained for. Is Simon up to the task?
Meanwhile, ExtraOrdinary Wizard Marcia Overstrand has taken her young Apprentice, Septimus Heap, on a field trip to the Port. But what Marcia had hoped would be a fun yet educational outing quickly turns chaotic, for it slipped Marcia's mind that tonight is Hallowseeth-the perfect night for Darke mischief to go unnoticed among the revelers.
With Angie Sage's characteristic humor, beloved characters, and Magykal setting, Septimus Heap: The Darke Toadis a must-read for every Septimus fan.
