While working at pleasant but mundane summer jobs in San Francisco, fifteen-year-old twins, Sophie and Josh, suddenly find themselves caught up in the deadly, centuries-old struggle between rival alchemists, Nicholas Flamel and John Dee, over the possession of an ancient and powerful book holding the secret formulas for alchemy and everlasting life.
Not bad. A good follow up to harry potter or the Rick riordan novels. There were some inconsistencies with the story that bugged me, but overall this was a fast enjoyable read.
