Publisher Description
IF YOU HAD SECRET MAGICAL POWERS, HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
After the Worldquake, Effie knows about magic - time in her grandfather's library has made sure of that. But there's still much she has to learn. About the Otherworld. And about the Diberi, a secret organisation with plans to destroy the entire universe.
Effie and her school-friends are the only ones who can stop them . . . and time is running out.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The opening act of a planned trilogy, Scarlett Thomas’ first novel for children transports us to the Otherworld: a complex, magical universe certain to appeal to fans of Harry Potter and Roald Dahl. When her engagingly odd grandfather dies, misfit Effie Truelove inherits the family library. Through the pages of that collection, she discovers her own supernatural powers and is thrown together with a band of similarly gifted schoolmates. Together, they’re plunged into a story of sorcery, friendship and vengeance that radiates warmth and imagination on every page.

I found it very complex and adventurous with many twists of betrayal. It also has a satisfying ending.
