Thomas Ward from
the Last Apprentice series is back for a new adventure in A New
Darkness. Battling creatures of the dark is the job of the local spook.
However with Master Gregory gone the job has gone to Tom Ward who never
finished his apprenticeship. With a new monster terrorizing the county it will
not be an easy task for Tom. Especially since the only person who seems to know
anything about the monster is Jenny, the 7th daughter of a 7th daughter
who will only share what she knows if Tom takes her on as his apprentice.
This new, exciting
arc of the Last Apprentice series hooks in where the series ended. It is fast
paced, full of adventure, horror and mystery as a new type of monster threatens
the villages of the county.
