Winner of the Scottish Teenage Book Prize Nominated for the Carnegie Medal Thousands of years ago, the Evernight came to the Silver Kingdom and turned everything to darkness and chaos. It was only defeated thanks to the skill and bravery of the Witches. But now the Evernight is about to return, released by the evil Mrs Hester, and the only spell that might stop it is lost, deep below the great city of King's Haven. Then orphan Larabelle Fox stumbles across a mysterious wooden box while treasure-hunting in the city's sewers. Little does she realise she is about to be catapulted into an adventure, facing wild magic and mortal danger – and a man who casts no shadow . . .

I enjoyed this book. It is a bit spooky but not too scary. I liked that during dramatic bits of the story the chapters had cliffhanger endings then the story moved back to another part so had I to wait to find out what happened.

Intriguing and fascinating. The book is about a girl who was given powers at the age of 13. She has the powers of air and water. The water sign is a dolphin which helped her know danger was near.

I loved this book because it takes such an ordinary girl and turns her into a hero. It mixes ordinary life and fanciful meaning together beautifully.
