书籍简介

★如果你喜欢《永无境》（Nevermoor）和《绿野》（Greenwild），那么这套《纽约时报》畅销青少年奇幻冒险系列4本平装合集适合你！该系列讲述了一座魔法屋里形形色色的居民的故事。

妮恩是个孤儿，也是个扒手，她决心逃离“千宝巢穴”的生活。在那里，她和其他许多小偷一样，她价值就是偷东西。一天，她从一位神秘女子的钱包里偷走了一个房子形状的装饰品，敲了敲它的小门，眼睁睁地看着它慢慢变成一座巨大而又奇形怪状的建筑。

在房子里，妮恩遇到了住在魔法屋里的古怪居民：炼金术士斯普恩博士、年轻的巫师兼跳房子高手弗拉伯加斯特，以及对他的鸡毛掸子有着强烈感情的巨魔管家埃里克。多年来，他们一直渴望解除笼罩在房子上的诅咒，因为这个诅咒让他们无法离开。多年来，孤身一人、性格古怪的奈恩毫无同情心，按理说，她应该是任何人寻找英雄的z后选择，但她却是身边的英雄。

从诅咒到女巫，再到其他魔法建筑，奈恩凭借着她的街头智慧，逐渐揭开了魔法的种种危险与陷阱，以及住在房子里那群古怪却或许可爱的临时家庭……还有她自己的秘密。

这套奇幻平装书包含：

1.魔法边缘的房子

2.时间尽头的塔楼

3.无尽之境的书店

4.世界尽头的灯塔

Perfect for fans of Nevermoor and Greenwild, all four books in the New York Times bestselling middle grade fantasy adventure series about the quirky inhabitants of a magical house are now available together in one paperback set!

Nine is an orphan pickpocket determined to escape her life in the Nest of a Thousand Treasures where she’s one of many thieves only valued for what they can steal. When she lifts a house-shaped ornament from a mysterious woman’s purse, she knocks on its tiny door and watches it grow into a huge, higgledy-piggledy building.

Inside, Nine meets the eccentric people who call the magical house their home: Dr. Spoon the alchemist, Flabberghast the young wizard and competitive hopscotch-er, and Eric the troll housekeeper with a strong emotional attachment to his feather duster. For years, they have been desperate to end the curse on the house that prevents them from leaving. After years of having only herself to count on, prickly Nine doesn’t have an altruistic bone in her body and should be the very last choice for anyone looking for a hero, but she’s the only one around.

From curses to other magical buildings, Nine uses her street smarts to uncover more about the perils and pitfalls of magic, the bizarre but perhaps loveable makeshift family living in the house…and herself.

This fantastical paperback includes:

The House at the Edge of Magic

The Tower at the End of Time

The Bookshop at the Back of Beyond

The Lighthouse at the World’s End
