MARCUS POCUS 6. THE FORBIDDEN DOOR

Enter the enchanted world of SunCity, where magic is delivered right to your doorstep—or at least it used to be. In this sixth instalment of the popular Marcus Pocus series, the home-magic business is losing clients fast. Why? A clandestine company, Secret Encanto, is undercutting the market by offering hidden magical delivery services. Marcus and his loyal crew will have to team up with their rival delivery outfit, Magic Express, to unravel the mystery.
With chapters designed for early independent readers, illustrations on every page and a breezy pace, this story combines friendship, humour and mystery in equal measure. The tale cleverly balances humour and tension as Marcus’s gang uncovers hidden back-routes, secret depots and unexpected alliances. Though part of a larger series, this volume works as a stand-alone adventure, making it ideal for readers new to the magic world of Marcus Pocus.
Written by award-winning authors Pedro Mañas and David Sierra, the book delivers fast-moving action, accessible vocabulary and themes of teamwork and resourcefulness. Its format (128 pages, paperback, size 14×20 cm) makes it a great gift for children aged approximately 6–9 years. Published by Destino Infantil & Juvenil in 2024, it ticks the boxes for fun reading, magic and first-chapter independence. 
Perfect for parents looking to engage reluctant readers or for kids who are ready to step into longer story-books, Marcus Pocus 6 invites a world where delivery vans carry spells instead of parcels—and where adventure hides behind every “forbidden door”.
