Description

The Alchemaster's Apprentice by Walter Moers is set in Malaisea, a town where sickness is a sign of good health and right and wrong are reversed. When Echo, a multi-talented creature, loses his mistress, he is forced to make a contract with Ghoolion, the evil alchemist-in-chief, which binds him to a life of culinary delights until his time runs out.

Ghoolion's plan seems foolproof, but Echo has other plans. With the help of some unexpected friends, including the Leathermice and Izanuela Anazazi, he must use all his skills to survive and outwit Ghoolion. This translation of Optimus Yarnspinner's novel introduces readers to a world where nothing is as it seems.

With its unique blend of adventure, humor and wit, The Alchemaster's Apprentice is a captivating tale that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
