This could've been twice as long imo, but I loved it anyway. I hope Angie Sage won't stop writing about the Septimus Heap world.
The TodHunter Moon series is a little bit more mature in tone than Septimus Heap. It’s fantastic world-building, though, and I was as pleased to be back in it as my kids were.
As a side note, after finishing the series, my 9yo begged to send Angie Sage a letter asking for more Septimus books. She responded that her publishers weren’t interested in more of the same, but she mailed him a copy of Magyk!

Enjoyed this series was fun to hang out with the gang again.
Another fun adventure with Tod and the rest of Sage's Magykal world.

The world of Septimus Heap and the Castle will always be precious to me, and it was a delight to add these three books to the world. To see the heros of the original series all grown up, and to meet some new characters, was so fun.
I will always prefer the original books, and I think these books are written with a less exact hand, but I do enjoy them and I still love Angie Sage's writing. Tod to me is a less compelling character than Septimus or Jenna or any of the original gang, but that is alright.
StarChaser was definitely my favourite of these three books. I was glad we returned to the Pathfinder lore and got to spend more time exploring the ways. I love Princess Driffa and I liked the story with the lapis. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and this series, and while I won't return to it as often as Septimus Heap, I know this won't be the last time I read this.

I started to get the feeling that Sage was glad to be seeing the end of this series by the time I got a little more than half through. Last third felt a bit rushed. Still wonderful and part of a delightful world and oeuvre.
