This book was so AWESOME!!
I read the whole series of the Abhorsen Trilogy, and that last one, this one, was probably my favorite. It kept me up most nights for long periods of time, and I couldn't take my eyes away. The plot is really well done, and the characters are thrilling and well thought out. I would give this book...

A nice addition to any library.
ALA Top Ten List. Fantasy that will appeal to the middle and high school reader. Story of a librarian/warrior. 3rd in a series.

What an ending!
This was an awesome ending to the trilogy! Lirael and Sam both play important roles, though maybe not what they expected as the story began. We get some long-awaited answers about the Old Kingdom's magic, the Dog, and Mogget. Yay! And, even better, we learn a little history...

I think this was a very powerful ending (yeah, I cried) and I loved the way that Nix tied his characters' stories together. I can't wait for the prequel!!!
