Inhaltsangabe

The tenth book in the internationally best-selling fantasy adventure series that inspired the forthcoming major motion picture Seventh Son. Back at home, but in no less danger, Tom will face a tragic love story, an unforgivable sacrifice, and a new creature of the dark that terrorizes a village with its thirst for blood.

Tom Ward, the Spook's apprentice, and his master have bound the Fiend at last. But now Tom must use his powers as the seventh son of a seventh son to put an end to the source of evil once and for all. When the Spook is captured by bloodthirsty creatures of the dark, Tom must vanquish a god, avenge his master, and protect the person he loves most―Alice―from himself. The Last Apprentice series is soon to be a major motion picture, Seventh Son, starring Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue, Djimon Hounsou and Julianne Moore as Mother Malkin. It's a suspenseful thrill-ride that's "spine-tingling" (Publishers Weekly) and "anything but tame" (Horn Book). But don't read it after dark!


  • Apprentice and Master: Tom Ward has always relied on the Spook. But when his master is captured and tortured, the seventh son of a seventh son must find the strength to stand alone.
  • Forced Sacrifice: To destroy the Fiend forever, a terrible price must be paid. Tom must choose between saving the world and saving the person he loves most—Alice.
  • High Stakes Fantasy: An ancient vampire god stalks the County, new demons hunger for blood, and the fate of humanity rests on one boy’s shoulders as he faces impossible odds.
  • Coming of Age Adventure: With his training incomplete and his allies scattered, Tom must finally become the spook he was destined to be—or watch the world fall into an age of darkness.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Nobody enters here after dark. Come back in the morning . . . if you're still breathing.

Thomas Ward is the seventh son of a seventh son, and apprentice to the local Spook. He has battled boggarts, witches, and the most powerful evils of the Dark. But his most trying task is yet to come.

When Tom and the Spook are deceived by one they trust, they find themselves in the most terrifying danger yet. Blood-hungry creatures have invaded a sleepy village. Tom can save the Spook—and the whole county—but only by betraying one of his greatest allies. With everything on the line, Tom must have the courage to stand and fight, and to face a choice that could break his heart.
