Sinossi
In un mondo dominato dal Nuovo Ordine, il regime autoritario che ha abrogato le leggi democratiche e proibito qualsiasi forma di libertà, due ragazzi lottano per la propria sopravvivenza e per la salvezza dell’umanità intera... Hanno combattuto con coraggio, ma hanno fallito. Nel giro di pochi giorni, Whit e Wisty Allgood sono stati costretti ad assistere all'esecuzione dei genitori e all'arresto di tutti i membri della Resistenza. Ed è solo l'inizio. Perché una nuova minaccia grava su di loro, ancor più pericolosa e sfuggente: la Peste del Sangue, un'epidemia letale che in pochissimo tempo si è diffusa a macchia d'olio in tutta la città. E Wisty è stata contagiata. Disperato, Whit non ha altra scelta se non quella di andare alla ricerca di un incantesimo abbastanza potente da guarire la sorella. Così si avventura per le strade di una capitale sconvolta e irriconoscibile, dove le guardie del Nuovo Ordine sono appostate a ogni angolo per sobillare i superstiti contro i maghi e le streghe, che vengono catturati e giustiziati perché ritenuti i portatori della Peste... Dopo «Il Nuovo Ordine» e «Il dono», questo è il terzo capitolo di «Witch & Wizard», la straordinaria saga firmata da James Patterson, l’autore più venduto al mondo.

Recensioni
Well, I stuck it out. What a waste of time. Patterson changed writing partners for each of the 3 books and I don't think it helped. 3 full books of the Allgood siblings being afraid, never growing, never learning. Three quarters of the way through this 3rd volume and Wisty is still petrified of "th
"Children against adults, violence, magic, music and love", but if you want to be cheap on words (as the novel is...) there is only one decent say: GARBAGE. Ps: Irony does that I've unfortunately jump into this mess shortly after finishing Sam's Letters to Jennifer, by the same author. If you ask me Leggi tutto
I'm sorry, but I have to say that I really have no idea how this book got so many five star reviews. Now, granted, I read about a few chapters offered on James Patterson's website, and I couldn't even bring myself to finish that. The first book was lacking. The second made no sense whatsoever. And t Leggi tutto
In The Fire, we discover just how powerful our friends are. Wisty cannot only burst into flames but she can control electricity as well. Whit not only can heal himself but he can heal others, which is convenient when he must save his sister for real this time. He's lost everything; his girlfriend, h Leggi tutto
I didn't like The Fire . ***** James Patterson ran out of fuel. The Fire started out great, but Whit & Wisty STILL could not figure out their Magic. For goodness sake, it’s the third book already! Surely, they thought of something by now on how to defeat The One Who Is The One. *sigh* No. still not the Leggi tutto
I can't believe that this is part of the same Witch and Wizard series that I loved so much! This book was horrible. I had to force myself to finish it and even that was off of principle alone. Otherwise I would've walked away from this. It was so boring- I'm sorry- but this was so out of character f Leggi tutto
The third installment of this series definitely kept the pace that I have come to expect from James Patterson. This book was filled with action and had me turning the pages as fast as I could to try to keep up. (view spoiler) [This book starts off much like the others, giving the reader an update on all that has ha (hide spoiler)] Leggi tutto
