'Her death would, she supposed, be quite an event in the world of magic and as Maritza, the Queen of the Earth Witches, approached, she wondered idly who else would be watching . . .'
A death. A new house. A new school. And more witches, with evil intentions, than they have previously encountered. The realities of life come knocking at Neil and Clara's door, leading them into a darker, more nail-biting adventure than ever before. When Clara inherits a silver amulet from her aunt, the Macleans' magic connections take a decidedly perilous turn.
Containing an explosive, unexpected twist, the latest installment in Anne Forbes' Dragonfire series will not disappoint as the story unfolds and family secrets are revealed.
Reviews
"We think that Witch Silver, the fifth adventure in the gripping Dragonfire series, is the finest book so far… Witch Silver is a fantastic book that we enjoyed thoroughly, in particular the imaginative descriptions of the frightening witches."
-- Scott and Naomi (Primary 5), George Heriot's School, Edinburgh
'… fans of the first four books will be delighted with this latest book for 8-12 year olds from the popular Edinburgh author, as they learn that no one is all bad or all good.'
--Suse Coon, Lothian Life
'I enjoyed this book as it is about mysteries, having adventures and going out at night.'
-- Juwariah Butt (Currie Community High), Teen Titles, December 2010
