The Mad Apprentice
English
By (author): Django Wexler
Old Readers are supposed to live for ever, magically inhabiting the spaces between stories. Theyre not supposed to die.
But they can be murdered.
When an ancient Reader is killed, seemingly by his own apprentice, the hierarchy of the magical world tumbles and its spider web of alliances begin to unravel.
Now its up to Alice and the remaining apprentices to sort out the mess and catch the murderer. But the world is changing all around them. Things are not as they seem. Its almost as if they are trapped in a strange sort of labyrinth . . .
