Publisher's Summary

Wall Street Journal bestselling author Charlie N. Holmberg returns to the enchanting world of The Paper Magician.

Alvie Brechenmacher has arrived in London to begin her training in Polymaking - the magical discipline of bespelling plastic. Polymaking is the newest form of magic, and in a field where there is so much left to learn, every Polymaker dreams of making the next big discovery.

Even though she is only an apprentice, Alvie is an inventor at heart, and she is determined to make as many discoveries - in as short a time frame - as she can. Luckily for her, she’s studying under the world-renowned magician Marion Praff, who is just as dedicated as Alvie is.

Alvie’s enthusiasm reinvigorates her mentor’s work, and together they create a device that could forever change Polymaking - and the world. But when a rival learns of their plans, he conspires to steal their invention and take the credit for it himself.

To thwart him, Alvie will need to think one step ahead. For in the high-stakes world of magical discovery, not everyone plays fair…

A brilliant book.

Honestly I was slightly unsure with this book on how different it may be from the original series. But Charlie N. Holmberg tied it in beautifully, and even expanded current characters. Another thrilling adventure happened, and a bow ties end to it all. I honestly can't wait to see what else happens with her future works!

Dying for more

This series is amazing I love this story can't wait for more. Alvie is so relatable to me I love her instantly. My glasses are constantly slipping and getting knocked off and also clueless in love. I hope that a sequel is coming soon. The voice actress was wonderful I got very into the story.

Excellent

Excellent follow up to the paper magician books. I really appreciated that she brought back old characters to see their progress in life.
