The third book of the New York Times-bestselling Summoner series for YA readers, which has been compared to Tolkien, Rowling, and Pullman

Harry Potter meets Pokemon meets The Lord of the Rings in Taran Matharu's Summoner quartet. Fans will eagerly anticipate this action-packed installment.

Fletcher and his classmates from Vocans Academy--including the elf Sylva and the dwarf Othello--time-travel through the ether, pursued by Wyvern Riders and the albino orc, Khan. In a race against time to survive the ether's poison, they find clues about traitors in their midst, and Fletcher's demon, Ignatius, changes in ways neither anticipate.

With plenty of duels, double-crosses, and even some romance, the team of Summoners faces their biggest challenge yet. Can they rebuild their world and broker peace?

The Novice:
A New York Times Bestseller

"Similarities to Tolkien's Lord of the Rings books, Pullman's His Dark Materials, and Rowling's Harry Potter [series] are unmistakeable, but reader won't mind . . . . The appealing characters, fast-paced plot, focus on racial politics, and interesting demon varieties . . . . make this an enjoyable read." --School Library Journal

"This plot-based fantasy adventure will be a satisfying read for a wide age range of readers, especially fans of role-playing games and Christopher Paolini." --VOYA

The Inquisition:
A New York Times Bestseller
A Publishers Weekly Bestseller

"Matharu offers a...story with continuous action and occasional gross-out humor; its worldbuilding is a cheerful mishmash of geography, chronology, and mythology blending guns, magic, and exoticized indigenous tropes...A fast-paced, familiar tale with strong echoes of Tolkien, Pullman, and Pokémon." --Kirkus Reviews
