Janie has moved from Los Angeles to London, and she ends up acquainted with a local apothecary, and his son, Benjamin. When men come to the apothecaries house, Jamie and Benjamin are entrusted with a book, the Pharmacopoeia. This isn’t any old book, however, it’s full of magic and surprises, and has many spells inside. Can they look after the book, or will they be caught…
This was a very cool book, with an interesting plot, that kept me on the edge of my seat. I give it a 10/10, and recommend it to people who enjoy magic and excitement.
