Descrizione
“Always perfectly magical.” —Neil Gaiman A timeless classic with brand-new cover art! Diana Wynne Jones’s bestselling, magical, and funny Chrestomanci novels will enchant fans of Soman Chainani, Rick Riordan, and Chris Colfer. Volume II contains The Magicians of Caprona and Witch Week. In the Magicians of Caprona, the two warring families of Caprona, the Montanas and the Petrocchis, must join forces to keep the White Devil from invading their city. Even Chrestomanci becomes involved when two of the youngest family members, Tonino Montana and Angelica Petrocchi, go missing. Their unusual magical powers will be key to stopping the White Devil. Witch Week takes place in a world where witches are burned at the stake, so when a note reading “Someone in this class is a witch” appears in Class 6B, it’s no laughing matter. Only Chrestomanci can sort out the mess that the students of 6B get themselves into. The second of three volumes, the Chronicles of Chrestomanci can be read in any order. This volume delivers two complete, classic fantasy adventures: An Enchanter with Nine Lives: Meet the powerful, impeccably dressed Chrestomanci, a government-appointed enchanter tasked with keeping the worlds of magic in line. Rivals to Allies: In Caprona, the feuding Montana and Petrocchi families must set aside their ancient rivalry when their children, Tonino and Angelica, go missing and a dark power threatens their city. A Witch Hunt in School: At Larwood House, witchcraft is a crime punishable by burning. So when a note appears saying "Someone in this class is a witch," a magical mystery unfolds. Two Classic Adventures in One: Enjoy two full-length, funny fantasy novels—The Magicians of Caprona and Witch Week—in a single volume that can be read in any order.
