.........

An ancient magic. A deadly enemy. A reluctant hero.

12-year-old Sam's world is blown apart when he discovers that his family was once at the heart of a secret society - The Order of the Evening - that had long protected the world. Now a powerful enemy is closing in, destroying all in its path to find the Order's hidden palace of Bellasis and the source of its powerful magic. Only Sam can stop them. But first, he must bring the Order together again.

The clock is ticking. Dark forces are massing. Sam must undertake perilous journeys, determine friend and foe, and discover his true powers. For this boy holds the future of the world in his hands ...

It's time to enter a world of magic, intrigue, danger and glory ... if you dare!

About the Author

Growing up in the North-East of England and now himself the father of four boys, Alexander Armstrong knows all about the power and the joy of sharing stories. His debut novel for children, Evenfall: The Golden Linnet, is inspired by his childhood and the mystical history of the ancient North. It's a story that has lived in his head for many years and he is delighted finally to share it with you. And to get the space back.

Alexander has been lucky enough to be part of some of the most successful programmes of recent times from Armstrong and Miller to Have I Got News for You via Classic FM, Doctor Who, Hey Duggee, Horrible Histories, Pointless and Danger Mouse.
