Tot i que la Kate, en Michael i l''Emma es van enfrontar a en Magnus l''Infame, no van aconseguir cap pista d''on eren els seus pares, desapareguts molts anys enrere. Quan els parlen d''un mapa d''un lloc misteriós que podria ser la clau per trobar-los, veuen el cel obert, però la Kate té cada dia una relació més estreta amb el Llibre del Temps i queda atrapada en el passat. Aleshores se submergiran en una perillosa aventura plena de riscos i desafiaments per intentar dominar la força dels Llibres de l''Origen. Si ho aconsegueixen, en tindran prou amb això per salvar-se?

Adéntrate en el mundo de «Los Libros de los Orígenes» y acompaña a Kate, Michael y Emma en su apasionante aventura. Kate es la mayor y más responsable. A sus catorce años, es la única que recuerda a sus padres, especialmente las últimas palabras de su madre pidiéndole que cuidara de sus hermanos. Michael, de doce años, es el empollón y el despistado de la familia. Ha perdido más gafas de las que pueda imaginar, aunque a veces el problema es que ni se acuerda de que las lleva puestas. Libro que encuentra, libro que devora, especialmente si habla de sus queridos Elfos. Emma, con solo once años, es pura dinamita. Decidida y directa, dice siempre lo que piensa, sin importarle las consecuencias. Suya es la frase: «Si quieres que te respeten, pelea». Desde que les apartaron de sus padres, diez años atrás, la vida de Kate, Michael y Emma ha transcurrido de orfanato en orfanato. Ahora acaban de llegar al último de su larga colección: situado en lo alto de una colina, parece un enorme castillo a punto de derrumbarse. Pero las sorpresas no acaban aquí: el orfanato está dirigido por el excéntrico doctor Pym -Michael no tiene ninguna duda de que es un mago- ¡y ellos son los únicos niños del centro! Por eso, muertos de curiosidad y sin nada que perder, dedican el primer día a inspeccionar todas y cada una de las habitaciones, y descubren pasadizos secretos, escaleras subterráneas y, lo más importante, un libro de color esmeralda que cambiará sus vidas para siempre... Juntos, los tres hermanos descubrirán que: La magia existe (Michael ya lo sabía). Hay libros muy, pero que muy peligrosos. Les guste o no, deben salvar el mundo. La crítica ha dicho... «Algunos lectores pensarán que es un libro muy largo..., pero cuando lo acaben desearán que lo hubiese sido más.» Kirkus Reviews «Con guiños a Harry Potter y a Narnia, los lectores esperarán impacientes el siguiente libro.» School Library Journal

En el segundo libro en los Libros de Trilog?a que Comienza, Michael y Emma deben detectar la Cr?nica de Vida, mientras Kate debe encontrar un camino atr?s presentando el d?a a partir del a?o 1899.

È la notte di Natale e Kate avrebbe voluto rimanere sveglia, ma i suoi occhi di bambina alla fine si sono arresi al sonno. Sono le mani di sua mamma a scuoterla e svegliarla di colpo: sta succedendo qualcosa. Qualcosa di brutto. Kate ha solo quattro anni, suo fratello Michael due, Emma è appena nata. Questa è l''ultima volta in cui vedranno i loro genitori. Dieci anni e moltissimi orfanotrofi dopo, i tre fratelli si imbarcano per quello che pare sia l''ultimo istituto disposto ad accoglierli: Cambridge Falls. Ma quando arrivano nella enorme casa tutta sbilenca, piena di torri, sotterranei e sale colme di bizzarrie, molte sono le domande che si affacciano alla loro mente. Come mai non ci sono altri bambini? Chi è l''enigmatico dottor Pym, il direttore di quello strano orfanotrofio? E soprattutto, cos''è quell''inquietante libro dalle pagine bianche e dalla copertina verde che sembra brillare di luce propria nel buio della camera segreta? Questa è la storia di Kate, che da sempre si prende cura dei fratelli, aggrappandosi alla disperata certezza che un giorno i suoi genitori torneranno a prenderli. Questa è la storia di Michael e della sua passione per le storie fantastiche. Questa è la storia della piccola Emma, che sembra non temere niente e nessuno al mondo ma ha nel cuore la paura più grossa di tutte: quella di perdere i suoi fratelli. Questa è la storia di tre bambini inseguiti da un potere oscuro e minaccioso. Questa è la storia di tre ragazzi e del libro che cambierà per sempre il loro destino.
