Gr 7 Up-In a modern world in which witches and witchcraft are regulated (and often discriminated against), this sequel to Burn Mark (Bloomsbury, 2012) finds teen witches Lucas and Glory working for WICA-Britain's agengy of Witchkind Intelligence and Covert Affairs. They are sent to infiltrate a boarding school in Switzerland, hoping to uncover ties to a witch-terrorist organization. They get more than they bargain for when they find out about a dangerous new operation that can remove a witch's fae (power). Fans of the first book will enjoy further insights into Lucas's and Glory's personalities, though many of the other characters are a bit one-dimensional. International espionage, fantastical witchwork, and even some romance are present in this exciting, fast-paced read that will appeal to fans of Robert Muchamore's "Cherub" series (S &; S), as well as to urban fantasy seekers. Jenny Berggren, formerly at New York Public Library

Lucas and Glory are hard at work in WICA (Witchkind Intelligence and Covert Affairs). As part of their training, they learn more about the witch-terrorist organization Endor. It is believed that Endor has infiltrated a boarding school for young witches in Switzerland, so WICA sends their two youngest agents--Lucas and Glory--to the school undercover. There, they learn more about an experimental brain implant that blocks the power of the fae. It's a dangerous procedure...more so than they could ever have imagined.
