Secrets of the First School

Beschreibung

One final adventure for Ropa Moyo - orphan, mischief-maker and failed magician. Secrets of the First School is the mystery-filled finale to T. L. Huchu's enchanting Edinburgh Nights series. 'I've had my arse kicked more times than I can count' Ropa Moyo is dead, banished to the Other Place by the reanimated spirit of Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville of Scotland. Turns out being on the losing side sucks worse than being skint. Now, the Cult of Dundas intends to ascend to godhood, spreading their corrupting reach from Edinburgh to all of Scotland's schools of magic. Ropa must find some way to escape the Other Place, save her sister and gather allies across the country before Edinburgh falls. A royal plot, a family secret and a stolen body. As Scotland descends into petty in-fighting, Ropa's only hope lies in her grandmother's final secret: the first school of magic. An ancient power is returning . . . and is hungry for revenge. * * * Praise for the Edinburgh Nights series: 'Fast-moving and entertaining . . . Stupendously engaging' - Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series 'I am such a fan of T. L. Huchu and this series - I recommend it to everyone I meet' - Olivie Blake, author of The Atlas Six 'I highly recommend The Library of the Dead' - Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse series
