Sabriel
by Garth Nix |
|
The Mage Abhorsen spirits his child
out of the Old Kingdom - far away from the uncontrolled power
of Free Magic, and away from the Dead who won't stay dead. Late
one night Sabriel is visited by a messenger who delivers her
father's seven bells into her keeping. Leaving the safety of
the school she has known as home, Sabriel embarks upon a quest
fraught with supernatural dangers, with companions she is unsure
of; for nothing is as it seems within the boundary of the Old
Kingdom. Compelling but easy to read, this is the first book
of a new fantasy series which will appeal to both adults and
young readers. (Suitable for 10 years and over) |
