Una nueva serie de fantasía que no te puedes perder, por la autora de Los dioses del norte, Jara Santamaría, llena de magia y aventuras. Antes de su último aliento, el Último Brujo emergerá de las aguas turbulentas y librará a la magia de su destrucción, >Ingrid nunca ha terminado de encajar en ninguna parte. Siempre se ha sentido rara, distinta, especial... y no en un buen sentido. Sin embargo, está a punto de descubrir que el mundo en el que vive no es el único que existe. Igual que la luz necesita la oscuridad, nuestro mundo está conectado a otro de muy similar, pero diferente. Está aquí mismo, pero oculto. Es el lugar donde habita la magia. Pero la magia está agonizando y, si llegara a desaparecer, se pondría en peligro la existencia de los dos mundos. La última esperanza es la que reza una antigua profecía: un último brujo ha de salvar la magia que se desvanece poco a poco y restaurar el equilibrio entre los dos mundos. ¿Pero cómo podrá salvarse la magia, si ya nadie cree en ella?>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A new fantasy series that you won't be able to put down, by the author of The Gods of the North series, Jara Santamaría, that is full of magic and adventures. Before his last breath, the Last Warlock will emerge from the troubled waters and will release magic from his destruction, ushering in a new dawn. Ingrid has never felt she fit in anywhere. She has always felt weird, different, special...and not in a good way. However, she is about to discover that the world she lives in is not the only one that exists. In the same way that light needs darkness, our world is connected to another one that is very similar, but different. It's right here but hidden. It's the place where magic lives. But magic is dying and if it were to disappear, the existence of the two worlds would be endangered. One last hope lies with an ancient prophecy that says: one last sorcerer must save the magic that is gradually fading and therefore restore balance between the two worlds. But how can magic be saved if no one believes in it anymore? Do not miss Jara Santamaría's new fantasy series.

An argument ensues about what kind of book this is, a princess book or a dinosaur book. Maybe it is a book for everyone"--Provided by publisher.
