The sequel to the New York Times bestselling House of
Secrets--hailed by J. K. Rowling as "a breakneck, jam-packed roller
coaster of an adventure"--this second installment by Hollywood director
Chris Columbus (of Harry Potter fame) and bestselling author Ned Vizzini
(It's Kind of a Funny Story) is full of even more explosive twists and
turns.
Since the siblings' last adventure, life in the Walker household is much
improved--the family is rich and the Wind Witch is banished. But no
Walker will be safe until she is found. Summoning her to San Francisco
brings all the danger that comes with her, and puts the Walkers in the
crosshairs of a mysterious journey through Denver Kristoff's books. As
the Walkers travel from ancient Rome to World War II to Tibet, they are
tested in ways that cut deeper than before--by Denver Kristoff, the Wind
Witch, and one another.
Fantasy fiction fans who enjoy Rick Riordan will find much to love in
this thrilling and action-packed novel.
