More great reads: the best books for 9 year olds
"An enthralling tale which sparkles with themes of good and evil, friendship, finding your people and discovering the magic within you"
A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month May 2023
Evie is a bored, cross and very ordinary twelve year old when she is suddenly recruited into the Order of the Stone by Wainwright, a mysterious magician she meets by chance.
With no idea as to how or why she has been chosen she is swept up in the Order’s ancient battle to keep the forces of darkness at bay and to defeat Vale, the evil magician. Evie’s companions in the fight look like a motley and unlikely crew, including a very bossy talking cat, but each of them has very special magic powers of their own.
Vale’s powers are huge and his team of henchmen, known as smoke-men, are deeply sinister. Has Evie the courage that is needed to lead her team and win the battle? The stakes are high and Ross Montgomery sensitively explores how Evie finds more courage than she knew she had in a roller-coaster read full of creative surprises.
