The Alchemist's Apprentice: And the Demon's Calling (book 2)

By Simon Craven

And the Demon's calling is the second book in the Alchemist's Apprentice tales.

It is the job of the Alchemist and his apprentice to tend to the medical needs of their village. But this Alchemist is different. He deals with the evil threatening his realm.
The Night Terror has escaped and the Alchemist and his apprentice Lem are on the hunt for it.
While hunting they receive a message that one of his clients daughters has gone missing. The Alchemist knows there is a connection with this to a group of demons known as the Brood.
If the girl is united with them the whole world would be in danger.
If that wasn't enough, the demon called Beth has returned to collect payment from Lem.
A fight for survival with twists and turns!
That's just what Lem enjoys the most.
