The Drowned Vault (Ashtown Burials, 2) by N.D. Wilson, September 11, 2012. Published by Random House Books for Young Readers.
It's been almost a year since Cyrus and Antigone Smith earned their places as Journeymen at Ashtown, home of an ancient order of explorers that has long guarded the world's secrets and treasures. While their studies go well, Cy and Tigs are not well liked since losing the Dragon's Tooth to the nefarious Dr. Phoenix. The Tooth is the only object in the world capable of killing the long-lived transmortals, and Phoenix has been tracking them down one-by-one, and murdering them.
The surviving transmortals, led by legendary warrior Gilgamesh of Uruk, descend on Ashtown in force, demanding justice. Cy and Tigs find themselves on the run in a desperate search to locate Phoenix and regain the Tooth. In the process, they uncover an evil even more dangerous than Phoenix, one that has been waiting for centuries to emerge.
Why: What luck I have that The Drowned Vault is about to come out. Lucky since I just read and adored The Dragon's Tooth. I need to know what is going to happen next to Cyrus and Antigone and I just need to read it. *does happy dance*
