My father and I just finished reading The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel: The Lost Stories Collection by Michael Scott.

My father and I just finished reading The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel: The Lost Stories Collection by Michael Scott.

Back in 2012 we finished The Enchantress, the final volume in The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series. A series that was five years of our lives, five years reading a Legend, for across all our vast Fantasy experience Michael Scott is the best myth-maker there is, welding real-world mytho-history into an epic mythos of a fast-paced, heart-stopping and utterly amazing masterwork. Hence returning to the world of The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel in The Lost Stories Collection was the joy of seeing old and dear friends again. Friends like the Alchemyst & Sorceress Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel, Marethyu, the Shadow Twins Scatty and Aoife, along with others such as Niccolò Machiavelli, Billy the Kid, and Virginia Dare. Plus a few new faces and tales of first meetings, such as Nicholas and Perenelle getting the Codex and of course nearly getting killed for it.

All told, and as expected, we had a delightful time of it.
