Summary

In the sixth book of the Magykal series, Alther Mella has been banished, a Darke Domaine engulfs the Castle, and a Darke dragon is on the loose. Septimus Heap must use all of his skills to save the Castle and the Wizard Tower from destruction: He must enter the Darke. But he cannot do this alone.

With the help of Jenna, Alther Mella, Marcellus Pye, and Septimus's estranged brother, Simon Heap, Septimus and Marcia Overstrand battle the spreading Darkenesse. Will Septimus succeed in protecting his Magykal world?

Written with Angie Sage's characteristic humor, Darke is a compelling fantasy adventure filled with surprises, thrills, and laugh-out-loud moments. Listeners will revel in the action-packed story as they realize the wisdom of Magyk - that all things are meant to be part of a living whole.

Another example of great storytelling

Couldn't stop listening, ended up at 3.30 am, just so I could finish it. Have the next one lined up ready to start .

Favourite so far

What made the experience of listening to Darke: Septimus Heap, Book Six the most enjoyable?

Everything! The story, narration, characters. I've listened to all the Septimus Heap books so far, and this is by far my favourite.

What did you like best about this story?

I'm a huge fan of Marcia Overstrand. I liked that Beetle got so much attention too.

Have you listened to any of Gerard Doyle’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Gerard Doyle has done a great job since the 2nd Septimus Heap book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When *spoilers* Septimus meets Alther Mella again. I was walking down the street wanting to yell "Yes!"

Excellent Read

This book is the first in an ongoing series of book, currently seven. It is an excellent read for young or old, and the imagination of the author makes it a fun story which you just don't want to put down.

Book six of a great series - never a dull moment!

Septimus Heap is a great listen, once you start with Book 1 you can't wait to listen to the following books. I loved each and every book in the series. Septimus Heap is the main character, he has a different adventure to protect his Magycal world in each book. He and his friends complete the quests, which are action packed - despite the suspense there are also lots of funny moments. In this last book the story is concluded, it has a great ending but I have to say I will miss Beetle, Septimus and little princess Jenna.
