Description

It has been nine months since Gordy and his friends, Max and Adilene, saved B.R.E.W. (the Board of Ruling Elixirists Worldwide) and the Vessel—the power source for the secret society of potion masters. Now, Gordy is starting the eighth grade, and has been trying new potion brewing techniques, but when he starts zoning out during practice, he knows something is wrong.

Gordy and his friends continue to work on their potions, but when Gordy chooses Max as his lab partner, Adilene starts to wonder if she still has a place with her old friends. She turns to a new friend, Cadence, who might know a way to help Adilene become a potion master on her own.

And in Greenland, Mezzarix has a chance to escape his Forbidden Zone—as long as he agrees to work with the mysterious Ms. Bimini and replicate an unusual solution known as “Silt.” It could be just the weapon Mezzarix needs to destroy B.R.E.W. forever.

​With both B.R.E.W and the Vessel in danger, and with the potion world in chaos, it’s up to Gordy, Max, and Adilene to rally the remaining Potion Masters before it’s too late.

Advance Praise

"Whether it is Max's mischief, Adilene's focus, or Gordy's genuine desire to do the right thing, the trio is the perfect mix of adolescent and hero. Gordy and Max seem to be white, and Adilene is a Salvadoran immigrant; secondary characters come together from around the globe to form a racially and culturally diverse cast. A clever second volume in a magical series sure to entertain fans of J.K. Rowling, Rick Riordan, and Brandon Mull." -Kirkus

Featured Reviews

Gordy is an elixirist in training. He has been granted special privileges to have two lab assistants. His mom is his adviser at B.R.E.W, at least until she is suddenly demoted by her new boss. Aunt Priss hasn’t been seen in a long time. And, the new principal and his daughter (Sasha Brexil) could be a problem. Especially, since Sasha is also an elixirist in training. B.R.E.W.’s enemies seem to be mounting a war with Gordy and his family stuck in the middle. Could Gordy’s exceptional abilities get him exsponged of his powers forever? And, who is Adeline’s mysterious new friend? This is a wonderful middle grade fantasy series that keeps getting better. It is a great match for fans of Brandon Mull, Leven Thumps, and Harry Potter. Grades 3 – 8.

This is book 2 in the series. I enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed the 1st book. This is a quick paced book and develops quickly. I do recommend reading book 1 before reading this one.

I received this from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
