Description:
There are three orphans who go through many adventures, trying to find all the magical books in the Books of Beginning. In the first book, " The Emerald Atlas" Kate finds the Atlas through many adventures with the countess (an evil witch), Gabriel (the giant) Screechers, and dwarfs. In the beginning of this book, they are sent by Dr. Pym back to the Edgar Allan Poe Home for Hopeless and Incorrigible Orphans. Soon Screechers, or deathless warriors break into the orphanage. A Screecher fights Kate and so she travels to the past to try to leave it there and come back. Emma and Michael are saved by Dr. Pym. But Kate hasn't come back yet, and she should've come back the second she left, or maybe she wouldn't come at all. The story is truly amazing, and if you like action books and fantasy, this is the best book for you.
