    Book 1 – The Alchemyst
    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.
    Book 2 – The Magician
    In the second book in the
New York Times
bestselling series, Nicholas, Sophie, Josh and Scatty emerge in Paris, the City of Light, home to Nicholas Flamel. Only this homecoming is anything but sweet. Niccolò Machiavelli, immortal author and celebrated art collector, lives in Paris and is working for Dr. John Dee. He’s in hot pursuit, and time is running out for Nicholas and Perenelle. Josh and Sophie Newman are the world’s only hope … If they don’t turn on each other first.

    Without the Codex, Nicholas Flamel has lost the means to create the Elixir of Life, which makes him immortal, and he grows weaker with each passing day. Perenelle is trapped in Alcatraz and Scatty has gone missing, leaving the group without protection. Josh and Sophie have fled to London with Nicholas, looking for help. The twins need to learn the Magic of Water. That means they need to find Gilgamesh the King and he is said to be quite, quite insane …
    Book 4 – The Necromancer
    Arriving back in San Francisco, Josh and Sophie are both more confused than ever about their future. Neither of them has mastered the magic they’ll need to protect themselves from the Dark Elders, they’ve lost Scatty and they’re still being pursued by Dr. John Dee. Most disturbing of all, however, is that now they must ask themselves, can they trust Nicholas Flamel? Can they trust
anyone
?
    Book 5 – The Warlock
    Josh and Sophie Newman, the twins of prophecy, have been divided and the end is finally beginning. With most of their allies – Scatty, Joan of Arc, Saint-Germain, and others – all occupied elsewhere, Sophie is on her own with the ever-weakening Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel. She must find an immortal to
