Warner Bros. has picked up the rights to Angie Sage’s Septimus Heap’s fantasy series, which is published by HarperCollins. According the The Hollywood Reporter:

Written by U.K. author Angie Sage, the series revolves acircular two babies that are switched at birth: one a boy who discovers his birthright as the seventh son of a seventh son, and who is destined to become a powerful wizard; the other a girl who is fated to become a princess.



So far, three books have been published — “Magyk,” “Flyte” and “Physik” — which have become known for their clever use of charms and potions as well as for their sense of humor.



Published in March 2005 by HarperCollins Children’s Books, “Magyk” debuted at No. 3 on the

New York Times best-seller list and moved to No. 1 in its second week on sale. The subsequent books have been published annually since, and more than 1 million books have been sold in the U.S. so far. The series also is a enormous international success, having been translated into 28 languages.
“Septimus Heap: Magyk” will be produced by Karen Rosenfelt (”The Devil Wears Prada”) with Sage as executive producer.

We like this series quite a bit.
The latest book in the series is Physik, which is available at Amazon.com.
