Bookroo's summary

Patch Brightwater, a young piper, must thwart a villain's plan to create immortal armor. Joined by Wren, a girl cursed as a rat, and Barver, a dracogriff, they face pirates and uncover griffin secrets. Can they harness magic to right past wrongs before time runs out?

From the publisher

The epic, middle grade fantasy continues in Book Two of the Songs of Magic trilogy! Having upset the Hamelyn Piper’s dastardly plan to build an army through songs of mind control, 13-year-old Piper, Patch Brightwater, must foil the escaped villain’s next sinister plot: assembling a suit of immortal armor. Accompanied by Wren, a girl cursed to live as a rat, and Barver, a fire-breathing dracogriff, Patch seeks the aid of old friends, legendary heroes, and a near-dead sorcerer. Embark on another adventure with the motley trio as they clash with pirates of the Eastern Seas, uncover secrets of the griffins, and dabble with magic to undo past wrongs and forge their own offense before it’s too late. S. A. Patrick’s Songs of Magic trilogy is a brilliant retelling of one of the darkest legends of all time, “The Piper of Hamelyn.” Combining folklore with the very best of modern storytelling, the books will delight young fantasy fans who are hungry for perilous quests, friendships forged on the road, and an inventive magic system that thrills the imagination.
