In the triumphant conclusion to the Sunday Times bestselling trilogy that started with A Deadly Education and The Last Graduate, saving the world is a test for which no school of magic can adequately prepare you. What you'll do after leaving the Scholomance is the one topic you never discuss while there; not even the wealthiest enclaver would tempt fate in such a way. But for El and her classmates, that seemingly unattainable desire has come true. And to top it off, she didn't even have to transform into the horrible dark witch she had been foretold would do so. She spared the enclavers rather than destroying them, making the world secure for all wizards. All of the world's enclaves have been engulfed in peace and harmony. I'm joking. Instead, someone else has taken over the task of destroying enclaves in El's place, and now that a full-scale enclave war is imminent, everyone El protected is once more in danger. El must therefore circle around and discover a route back inside the Scholomance as soon as she miraculously escapes it.
