Josh and Sophie finally return home, having gained some mastery over their recently awakened magical powers. Meanwhile, Nicholas must try to gain back the twins' trust. Though the plot continues to drive its characters, the story line following the twins is engaging and the blending of historical people and mythology continues to be an entertaining signature of this series.
