ON THE FOURTH DAY, THERE WAS WAR.

It's Thursday. Following their adventure on the Border Sea, Arthur and Leaf are set on heading home. But only she can make it through the Front Door. Arthur is blocked because someone - or something - has assumed his identity and is taking over his life.

Before Arthur can take action, he is drafted by the strange Sir Thursday and forced to join the Glorious Army of the Architect.

While Leaf tries to banish Arthur's double on earth, Arthur must survive his basic training, avoid getting posted to the front and work out how he can free Part Four of the Will.

Is this a war Arthur can win . . . or is his only hope to escape it?

Review of 'Sir Thursday' on 'Storygraph'

Arthur gets drafted.

Here's something I like about this series compared to Harry Potter: As Harry Potter got older, he became more of a jerk and more petulant about fighting the bad guys.

Arthur might be getting tougher, but he's taking on his responsibility and if anything becoming more considerate of the people around him.

[Possible spoiler: No talking rats in this book, but there are hints they'll show up again.]
