Synopsis

Full of monsters, magic, danger and mystery, Vega Jane and the Secrets of Sorcery (previously published as The Finisher) is the first title in the thrilling Vega Jane children's fantasy adventure series by bestselling master storyteller David Baldacci. Illustrated throughout by Tomislav Tomic.

Vega Jane is fourteen when she is secretly given a map that reveals a mysterious world and dangerous creatures beyond the walls of Wormwood, a place no one has ever left – or wanted to. Until now. The map makes her question everything she has ever been told about the place she calls home. Her friend Delph and her dog, Harry Two, are the only ones Vega trusts. Trapped by secrets and lies, they want freedom and truth.

But she will have to fight for freedom. And the truth may cost Vega her life.

Continue the adventure series with Vega Jane and the Maze of Monsters.

Vega Jane and the Secrets of Sorcery was previously published as The Finisher and has been edited for younger readers and re-illustrated throughout.

This extraordinary book pulls you in and blows your mind. It's fast-paced and you won't be able to put it down. This book is full of suspense, cliffhangers and thrilling moments!... It's definitely my new favourite book.
High octane fantasy adventure from the master, David Baldacci. Combining mystery with danger, combat and magic we're left not knowing who to trust. A thoroughly enjoyable read
A book that begins with a map shows great promise in my mind.
