After learning that she is the Princess, Jenna is whisked from her home and carried toward safety by the Extraordinary Wizard, those she always believed were her father and brother, and a young guard known only as Boy 412--pursued by agents of those who killed her mother ten years earlier.
A really great book about magyk, friendship and family!
I think, the plotttwist with Boy 142 aka Septimus was really well written and I suspected nothing. I am excited to read the next one
I really liked it. Quite different from what I expected. I really liked the characters and the interesting world they lived in. I was surprised it took so long to find out who Septimus really was, but I could tell who it was going to be right away. After a certain point I figured that reveal was going to be at the end.
