Tod has grown up a PathFinder, one of an ancient seafaring tribe. Her mother, who died when Tod was young, had a very different history. She was from a mysterious magykal desert-dwelling family. When Tod's father disappears she is not only alone, but soon finds herself swept into the path of an evil sorcerer. Now Tod must choose which of her pasts will help her to survive: PathFinder or Magician. Magyk will allow her to fight like with like, but her PathFinder heritage gives Tod something special – the edge.
Perfect for both established fans of the Septimus Heap series and readers coming to the world of Septimus Heap for the first time, 'PathFinder' is the first book in the Septimus Heap companion series, TodHunter Moon.

Seven years after the events of the original Septimus Heap series, a young PathFinder named Alice TodHunter Moon – who insists on being called Tod – sets out from her seaside village to rescue her friend Ferdie from the malevolent Lady.
She receives help from ExtraOrdinary Wizard Septimus Heap and Ex–ExtraOrdinary Wizard Marcia Overstrand, but the Lady’s brother, the Darke Sorcerer Oraton-Marr, has a plan that will put everyone Tod holds dear in danger. To save her people, Tod must embrace her identity as a PathFinder and navigate the often dangerous Ancient Ways.
Full of Angie Sage’s characteristic humor and heart, the TodHunter Moon series celebrates the joy of discovering one’s own personal Magyk, and of choosing the path that lets that Magyk flourish and grow – perfect for anyone who can’t get enough of the world of Septimus Heap!
