In Dying Light Eevi’s adventures continue, as she has to try and talk some sense into the witch Louhi, who is planning to shut down the sun and destroy the whole earth. Otso has a meticulous plan to save the day, and the stakes are high: they must save the world. What could possibly go wrong? Eevi sets out to find help from more mythical creatures, but soon discovers that she will have a bigger role to play if she wants to set things right.
Dying Light is the third book of the Mythicals, a graphic novel series for middle-grade readers that draws inspiration from Balto-Finnic myths.
