There's a magical and political storm brewing - and Aubrey Fitzwilliam is making sure he's right in the centre of it.

Set in a world similar to Edwardian Britain, just before World War I, this fantasy series is full of magic, manners, conspiracy and intrigue, politics and personal trial - not to mention good old-fashioned fun.

The Laws of Magic stars Aubrey Fitzwilliam, the son of a prominent ex-prime minister. He's brilliant at magic, but he's still stuck at school. At least he has his best friend, George, there to back him up. George would follow Aubrey anywhere - and with Aubrey's talent for thinking up impulsive and daring schemes that will get them both in trouble, that's no easy thing to do.

From golems to top-secret submersibles, soul stealers to ghosts, The Laws of Magic is a cracking good read.
