Summary

Summary

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!

Author Bio: Joseph Delaney

Joseph Delaney (1945-2022) was an English teacher before becoming the bestselling author of the Spook's series, which has been published in 30 countries and sold millions of copies. Revenge of the Witch was adapted into a 2014 film, Seventh Son, by director Sergei Bodrov; its cast included Kit Harrington, Jeff Bridges, and Julianne Moore. He was the author of two other series of novels, Arena 13 and Aberrations. He lived in Lancashire, England, and most of the places in the Spook’s books are based on real places in Lancashire. The inspiration behind the stories often comes from local ghost stories and legends. The Spook’s Apprentice, The Spook’s Curse, and The Spook’s Secret have all been shortlisted for the Lancashire children’s Book for the Year Award. The Spook’s Apprentice won both the Sefton Book Award and the Hampshire Book Award.
