The second book in The Magpie Prince series. Now that Alec Pyat knows he's a wizard, he will learn everything about magic and being a wizard. Or so he thought. It's the end of his boring summer holidays, and his grandmother still hasn't taught him anything. On the contrary. She hardly lets him out of her sight. Life is worse than ever. So when Alec discovers the copy of an original painting from his grandmother's study in a local gallery, he sets off to uncover its secret. He notices small differences in the two paintings, differences that change whenever he looks at the painting. There's no doubt: the paintings are alive. His best friend Caspian Marlowe, meanwhile, worries about his familiar Raven. When he comes to Windermere to ask Pippa Carline for help with Raven's strange illness, he and Alec team up to help Raven and to learn everything about the paintings. What is the message of the magpies that live in the painting? What secret are they hiding? And can they help Raven? Dieses Buch richtet sich an Lernende der englischen Sprache, die die Stufe B1 (Treshold Level) des Gemeinsamen europ ischen Referenzrahmens erreicht haben. Es enth lt Vokabelhilfen in den Fu noten sowie ein englisch-deutsches W rterbuch.
