Syren is finally here!

Syren the next book in the Septimus Heap series by Angie sage is finally here and sporting a fab new cover (as per usual). My obsessing over these books manage to come to a close about 4 months after Queste was released and read and now I can start again on the next chapter of the story, I can't wait^^. Of course I will have to finish the book I am currently reading , only 600 pages to go, first but I think I can surreptitiously read a couple of chapters. It has also been revealed that the first book Magyk will be made into a film, but it will be animated. I'm not sure if the excitement for a film or the disappointment that it will be animated is stronger, but on the other hand Star Wars: The Clone wars was in fact animated and I enjoyed that a lot... well we will have to wait and see wont we. The blurb of the book reads
Septimus is stranded on a remote island with his badly injured dragon, Spit Fyre, along with Jenna and Beetle. The island is captivatingly beautiful, one of seven set in a sparkling sea, but there is also something strange about it... not least the Magykal girl named Syrah, the cat-shaped lighthouse, and an eerie presence that sings to Septimus... Trouble is also brewing for Lucy and Wolf Boy, who have been entangled with some nefarious sailors, and for Milo Banda, Jenna's father, who is harbouring a mysterious treasure chest in his ship's hold.
I can't wait to get started. I can feel a SH re-read coming on.

Everything's French in Frenchworld!
