About this eBook

The second book in a new trilogy from Joseph Delaney, the author of the internationally best-selling Last Apprentice series. 

Tom Ward is now spook of the county, and with his apprentice, Jenny, he continues the fight against boggarts, witches, and terrifying new creatures of the dark. Together with the witch assassin, Grimalkin, Tom and Jenny lead an army into battle against a dangerous enemy—but it all goes catastrophically wrong. The situation seems hopeless until Alice—Tom’s lost love and a powerful witch—appears. But Alice had turned to the dark: can Tom trust her now? 

Joseph Delaney’s deliciously scary imagination continues Tom’s saga, introducing new readers to the struggle against the encroaching dark and taking longtime fans back to familiar settings, where they will find old friends—and old enemies.

Perfect for every reader who loves thrills, chills, action, and adventure—no prior knowledge of the Last Apprentice series is necessary!

The last apprentice was my favorite book series and I was excited for its continuation with this book however It did not live up to my expectations at all. It didn't even seem like I was reading a book by this author but instead seemed like a bad fanfiction. Story was short and lacked depth hopefully the next one will be better because I'm not ready to give this series up yet

Loved it, favourite series by an author by far, waited so long for this book and the joy of its release was short lived. It felt short and rushed. I'd gladly pay twice as much if only the next one was at least 50% longer and more in depth.
