About this product

Product Information

New York Times bestseller Lirael is perfect for fans of epic fantasy like Game of Thrones . In this sequel to the critically acclaimed Sabriel , Garth Nix draws readers deeper into the magical landscape of the Old Kingdom. Lirael has never felt like a true daughter of the Clayr. Abandoned by her mother, ignorant of her father's identity, Lirael resembles no one else in her large extended family living in the Clayr's glacier. She doesn't even have the Sight--the ability to see into possible futures--that is the very birthright of the Clayr. Nevertheless she must undertake a desperate mission under the growing shadow of an ancient evil--one that opposes the Royal Family, blocks the Sight of the Clayr, and threatens to break the very boundary between Life and Death itself. With only her faithful companion, the Disreputable Dog, to help her, Lirael must find the courage to seek her own hidden destiny.

Sabriel,Lirael & Abhorsen - trilogy by Garth Nix
This fantasy series is a bit on the dark side, dealing with souls trying to escape from death, and the main characters "job" to return them. However it is a fascinating story, really well written and a riviting read. The first book can stand alone, but with all three together they are so good that you become disappointed when you get to the end that its over..... and since I couldn't put any of them down, that happens fast. Would probably not give this to lower grade elementary kids, but great for 5th grade up.... and as engrossing for adults like me. The main characters in the story are strong female ones, however I think that this would be a good read for both sexes. This was so good, that having told all my friends of its merits, am off to try some more of his other writings.
