The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel Graphic Novel by Michael ScottMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Sophie and Josh are working their summer jobs when they are plunged into a battle that has been happening for centuries … literally. It turns out that Nicholas Flamel is Josh’s employer, and he is over 600 years old. Nicholas discovered the Book of Abraham the Mage (better known as the Codex) and has been brewing the elixir of life every month for centuries. Dr. John Dee is a former student of Nicholas and has been hunting him in order to take the Codex for himself. Who else will join this adventure? What hidden truths will the twins uncover?
The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel Graphic Novel is a reimagining of the original tale. Readers who have enjoyed the Alchemyst series will find this adventure just as appealing. Those who are new to the story will be clamoring for more. The graphics are wonderful, and the story is great, but readers should know that this is almost all character development and leaves everyone without a lot of answers. A good adaptation and I can’t wait for the next installment.
