...till now.
Okay, so the book I'm reading now is the first book of the Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage, entitled Magyk. Not a bad book so far, I'm about a third of the way through it, and am going to read the second book, Flyte, after finishing it.
Now, this weeks theme is to write an article-type summary of what I read. This.... should be fun... -_-
On The Run
Silas Heap finds a baby in the snow after his newborn son is declared dead by the midwife. He takes her home and they raise her like their own child.
The baby was a girl with black hair and violet eyes, contrasting to everyone in his family that has blonde hair and green eyes. Ten years passed, and on the girl's, who they named Jenna, tenth birthday, the Heaps have to leave home under the order of Marcia Overstrand. She told them of where Jenna came from; she turns out to be the daughter of the Queen who had been assassinated on the night she was found, and because of that, the assassin was coming for her.
Marcia takes Jenna to the Wizard Tower, where she lives, but before arriving, they find a member of the Young Army, called Boy 412, and save him from freezing to death, taking him up into the tower. From there, Silas and one of Jenna's brothers, Nicko, join them, and again have to flee.
From there they had to go through the Rubbish Chute to escape The Castle, the town that they live, and get a boat from their friend Sally Mullin to get to their Aunt Zelda's house hidden in the swamp. Along the way, they are chased by The Hunter, who leads his Pack in a Hunt to kill Jenna, but Marcia leads them off by creating a mirage of the boat they were lent and leading The Hunter away from them.
As of now, they haven't reached their destination and are still wandering the marsh.
