Abhorsen Classic Edition - Paperback

by Garth Nix (Author)

What
began with Sabriel 25 years ago comes to an unforgettable conclusion to
the Old Kingdom Trilogy in Abhosren by master of fantasy and globally
bestselling Garth Nix, now available in a special anniversary edition with
original art by Leo and Diane Dillon.

The last
hope for the living.

The
Abhorsen Sabriel and King Touchstone are missing, leaving only Lirael--newly
come into her inheritance as the Abhorsen-in-Waiting--to stop the Destroyer. If
Orannis's unspeakable powers are unleashed, it will mean the end of all Life.
With only a vision from the Clayr to guide her and the help of her companions--Sam,
the Disreputable Dog, and Mogget--Lirael must search in both Life and Death for
some means to defeat the evil destructor . . . before it is too late.

"Nix
brings his trilogy to a literally earth-shattering conclusion. Action explodes
from the very first pages. Breathtaking, bittersweet, and utterly unforgettable." --Kirkus
Reviews (starred review)

"This
title has a cinematic sweep; the tense, climactic confrontation pulls from the
very beginning into a tightly constructed, satisfying conclusion." --BCCB
