After confronting the evil Hamelyn Piper, Patch Brightwater, his dracogriff friend Barver, and an army of Pipers have been transported to a mysterious island where they find themselves trapped with monstrous beasts. Meanwhile, their shapeshifting friend, Wren, has been captured by the nefarious villain and is working hard to escape a pair of magic-dampening manacles.
Clad in his suit of impenetrable black armor, with traitorous dragons on his side, the Piper of Hamelyn hunts for a mythical amulet to achieve true immortality. But Erner Whitlock, an apprentice in the Piper’s Custodian Elite, is on the verge of discovering yet another foe with even more sinister plans . . . Can Patch and friends reunite in time to prevent destruction from raining on the world?
S.A. Patrick’s Songs of Magic trilogy is a brilliant retelling of one of the darkest legends of all time, "The Piper of Hamelyn." Combining folklore with the very best of modern storytelling, the books will delight young fantasy fans who are hungry for perilous quests, friendships forged on the road, and an inventive magic system that thrills the imagination.

The hunt continues for the merciless Hamelyn Piper in this epic conclusion to the Songs of Magic trilogy. Ten years ago, hundreds of human and dragon children were lured from their homes, never to be seen again. It wasn't the humans that the Hamelyn Piper wanted, but the bones of the dragons, which turn into a powerful mineral called obsidiac. Now known as the Black Knight for his black obsidiac armor, the Hamelyn Piper is in search of the amulet that will bring him immortality. Piper Patch Brightwater, dracogriff Barver Knopferkerkle, and shape-shifter Wren Cobble--joined by the motley band of crusaders who gathered in earlier series entries--are honing their respective magical and non-magical skills to stop the Black Knight from destroying all who do not pledge fealty to him. According to prophecy, the friends will be betrayed by members of the ruling Pipers' Council, so in addition to navigating a deadly forest of bone trees, a dangerous Bestiary of monsters, and imprisonment by the Hamelyn Piper himself, they must be wary of those in positions of power whom they should be able to trust. With its heart-stopping action and apocalyptic stakes, this final installment does not disappoint, although the conclusion may leave readers wondering if there's more of the tale to be told. The human characters read white. A more than satisfying ending to a classic fairy-tale retelling. (Fantasy. 9-13)COPYRIGHT(2024) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
