Aided by hexes and a bag of charmed relics, the Wilbies have recovered children abducted by chimney-wraiths, removed infestations of barb-nosed incubi, and ventured into the Gray Plains of the Unmade to soothe a troubled ghost. Well-acquainted with the weird, they never shy away from a challenging case.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut when they are approached by the royal secretary and told the king pleads to be baked into a cake - going so far as to wedge himself inside a lit oven - the Wilbies soon find themselves embroiled in a mystery that could very well see the nation turned on its head. Their effort to expose a royal secret buried under forty years of lies brings them nose to nose with a violent antiroyalist gang, avaricious ghouls, alchemists who draw their power from a hell-like dimension, and a bookish dragon who only occasionally eats people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArmed with a love toughened by adversity and a stick of chalk that can conjure light from the darkness, hope from the hopeless, Iz and Warren Wilby are ready for whatever springs from the alleys, graves, and shadows next.","brand":"Orbit","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42822804537424,"sku":"9780356519067B","price":7.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/8173\/5760\/files\/9780356519067-l.jpg?v=1785889585","url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-hexologists-bk-1-9780356519067b","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
