Product Description
There's trouble at the Castle, and it's all because Merrin Meredith has returned with Darke plans for Septimus. More trouble awaits Septimus and Jenna in the form of Tertius Fume, the ghost of the very first Chief Hermetic Scribe, who is determined to send Septimus on a deadly Queste. But Septimus and Jenna have other plans—they are headed for the mysterious House of Foryx, a place where all Time meets and the place where they fervently hope they will be able to find Nicko and Snorri, who were trapped back in time in physik. But how will Septimus escape the Queste? Queste, like all the books in the Septimus Heap series, is filled with nonstop action, humor, and fantastical adventure as Septimus continues his journey of Magykal self-discovery.

 Too bad the magic is gone May 14, 2008
I got this for my third-grade fantasy loving son, who loved the first two and wished the third one had more action but read it through anyway. He started Queste about two weeks ago and decided not to finish. He kept waiting for it to get better but at half way throught the book, when the new Percy Jackson, Battle of the Labrinth came out he switched. He read that in one day! Too bad that Sage could not keep this sequel fresh for her fans. I am on Amazon right now looking for some other books he may like and wanted to share this nine year old boy's opinion.
Books he loved: All the The Last Apprentice books, Ranger's Apprentice, Garth Nix's, Seven Towers and Keys to the Kingdom. Of course Harry Potter and The Hobbit some of Lord of the Rings (he did skip parts). In first and second grade he loved Secrets of Droon and Avatar: The Earth Chronicles books. I hope this helps some of you with fantasy-loving hard-to-please boys.
 great story May 11, 2008
I recommend the book because it is a good read and it continues on from the previous story lines . I liked the way they had to travel through the forrest and face the Forxye.
 Loved it May 9, 2008
I really enjoyed the imaginative world and playful character development Ange Sage paints in Quest. I can't wait for book 5.
A Heap of Fun to Read!! May 8, 2008
This series is just fantastic. It is wonderful to see the characters evolving through this series. There is so much going on in the book but it never seems cluttered or overwhelming. The visit back to the forest was great. It's always nice to find out what all the other Heap boys are up to. Ms. Sage does a wonderful job of revealing the pieces to the puzzle. The Queste process in and of itself was interesting but when you find out the why of the Queste it's just wonderful. I like that everything isn't a BIG REVEAL and that profound meaning in something can be so simple. This series appeals to both boys and girls (I work in an upper elementary library and see these books going out frequently). Can't wait for the next one!! I was excited to see the fourth book as much as our students (in fact, I ordered my own copy so I wouldn't have to wait!!)
I love Septimus Heap!!! May 7, 2008
