"In Sage's most thrilling book yet, a new host of characters appear, giving the complex plot even more sparkle." —VOYA (starred review)
"Once again, Sage's tale combines humor, adventure, and inventive storytelling and is sure to please her many fans."—ALA Booklist
"Syren is Sage at her best; it's full of fun, adventure, humor, irony, friendship, loyalty and nonstop action" —School Library Journal
In this epic Magykal installment, Septimus ends up on a captivatingly beautiful island, one of seven set in a sparkling sea. He's stranded there with his badly injured dragon, Spit Fyre, along with Jenna and Beetle. There are some strange things about the island, including a Magykal girl named Syrah, a cat-shaped lighthouse that has lost its Light, and an eerie presence that sings to Septimus—can he escape the persistent call?
Trouble is also brewing for Lucy and Wolf Boy, who have become entangled with some nefarious sailors at sea, and for Milo Banda, Jenna's father, who is harboring a mysterious treasure chest in his ship's hold.
Charismatic storyteller Angie Sage continues Septimus Heap's Magykal journey with more laugh-out-loud adventures, more enchanting charms and spells, and an ever-deepening understanding of the interior life of a young hero.

November 1, 2009
Gr 4-9-Septimus Heap returns triumphantly to the Castle and Wizard Tower, the only Apprentice ever to return alive from a "Queste", let alone to complete one. Marcia Overstrand, ExtraOrdinary Wizard, then makes him a very young Senior Apprentice. With his new freedoms, Septimus sets out on his dragon, Spit Fire, to retrieve his brother Nicko and friends Snorri, Princess Jenna, and Beetle, whom he promised to return safely to the Castle. When leaving on this rescue mission, though, Septimus does not receive a Live SafeCharm from his Aunt Zelda, and a chain reaction of unfortunate events besiege him and his companions. Many small plotlines are introduced, but they converge clearly in Septimus's challenge on the Islands of Syren. Unlike the two previous books, which could be a little confusing, "Syren" is Sage at her best: it's full of fun, adventure, humor, irony, friendship, loyalty, and nonstop action. In spite of its length, fans of the series will tear through this book and come out eagerly anticipating the next installment."Jessica Miller, New Britain Public Library, CT"Copyright 2009 School Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.

In their fifth adventure, Septimus and Jenna eventually wind up stranded on an island. There, they investigate mysterious (and magical) goings-on. Though the story tends to meander and the plot is more forced than others in the series, entertaining dragon-poop and cabbage-sandwich jokes abound.(Copyright 2010 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
