Biography
Josh is slightly younger than Sophie, but both were born to Richard and Sara Newman. His family would go on trips to man places, often leaving Josh and Sophie in Aunt Agnes's care. This occurred in San Francisco, where Agnes lived. When their parents went to Utah for their job, Josh took his dad's advice and applied for a job at The Small Book Shop. While he was being interviewed by Nick Fleming Fleming's wife Perry entered and talked to Fleming. Josh was then granted the job.

During his job there, Josh grew close to Fleming, and told him the differences and uses for e-mail and IM. He opened accounts on both for Fleming, and began to create a website for the store. Sent one day to get The Complete Works of Charles Dickens, Josh began to smell peppermint and sulfur, and climbed from the cellar to see Fleming dueling John Dee. Fleming grabbed Josh, and dragged him into the cellar, than up and around to the empty store next door. They ran back in the bookshop, where Perry destroyed a Golem. The Flemings were defeated by Dee, and Dee grabbed the Codex. Josh ripped the final two pages out as Dee reached for it, and Dee took what he had and Perry away.

Fleming introduced himself as Nicholas Flamel, the legendary Alchemyst and husband of Perenelle Flamel. The twins learned of John Dee, and his unceasing mission for the Dark Elders: to exterminate humanity and return the Elder race to glory. Josh went in an internet café to google the Flamels and Dee, and found the information Flamel told the twins to be true. Walking with Flamel through the city, Flamel told of how Dee had been trailing him for centuries. Moving into an alley, they spotted rats and crows working as Eyes for Dee. Flamel led the twins into a door where they saw traps, before showing them a hidden entrance. There they saw Scathach, and she was introduced. Josh looked her upon Altavista and Google, and learned that she exists in mythology. Sending an e-mail to and calling their mom, they saw the Eyes and Golems in the alley. Two Golems were destroyed, but the third entered the hideout. Sophie helped Scathach defeat it while Flamel blocked the rats.
