Magic is BAD.
As in fake. Cheesy. Unreal. At least, that's what Clay, who has seen one magic show too many, thinks.
When words from his journal appear mysteriously on his school wall as graffiti, he never imagines that magic might be to blame. And when the same graffiti lands him at Earth Ranch, a camp for "troubled" kids on a remote volcanic island, magic is the last thing he expects to find there.
But at Earth Ranch, there is one strange surprise after another, until Clay no longer knows what to expect. Is he really talking to a llama? Did he really see a ghost? What is the scary secret hidden in the abandoned library? The only thing he knows for sure is that behind the clouds of vog (volcanic smog), nothing is as it seems. Can he solve the riddle of Earth Ranch before trouble erupts?
Elusive author Pseudonymous Bosch introduces an extraordinary new series that will have you believing in the unbelievable.
In his first summer at Earth Ranch, Clay encountered a haunted library, a mysterious castaway boy, and a fire-breathing dragon--not to mention some pretty incredible magic. Now he faces his most dangerous foes yet: the mysterious white-gloved members of the Midnight Sun, and he must join forces with familiar faces from the Secret Series (including that series' main characters Max-Ernest and Cassie) in order to triumph over these villains once and for all.
With action, adventure, magic, mystery, and even dragons, the final book in The Bad Books series delivers another unforgettable journey through the mind of bestselling author Pseudonymous Bosch.
