Publisher's Summary
Nicholas Flamel appeared in J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter - but did you know he really lived? And his secrets aren't safe! Discover the truth in book one of the New York Times best-selling series The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel.
The truth: Nicholas Flamel's tomb is empty.
The legend: Nicholas Flamel lives.
Nicholas Flamel is the greatest Alchemyst to ever live. The records show that he died in 1418, but what if he's actually been making the elixir of life for centuries?
The secrets to eternal life are hidden within the book he protects - the Book of Abraham the Mage. It's the most powerful book that has ever existed, and in the wrong hands, it will destroy the world. And that's exactly what Dr. John Dee plans to do when he steals it.
There is one hope. If the prophecy is true, Sophie and Josh Newman have the power to save everyone. Now they just have to learn to use it.
“The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel has everything you loved about Harry Potter, including magic, mystery, and a constant battle of good versus evil.” (Bustle)

Longing for Magic?
I’ve been looking for something after harry potter(HP) series. I’m one of those who took to HP series very late but have been enchanted by it and couldn’t let it go. But everything comes to an end eventually. The Alchemyst has come to the rescue. I’m lucky I found it. It is fully packed with Magic, emotions, suspense and all the other elements one would look for in these books. Do not compare this with the HP series and think of this story as set in a similar world but with a bit more comical descriptions(anyone who watched the “Trollhunter” series would understand by the end of this book). Overall, I’ll compare one thing, the narrator is really good but I missed something which I thoroughly enjoyed with the HP series audiobooks. Nevertheless, it’s still an excellent audiobook(/Read) for people looking to dive into a fantasy world. I’m definitely going for the sequel *insert thumbs up emoji*
