What is the Old Kingdom Series About?
The Old Kingdom series is an enchanting blend of high fantasy and macabre, written by renowned author Garth Nix. Set in a dual-world universe, the series explores the stark contrast between an early 20th century-like land devoid of magic, and the eponymous Old Kingdom where magic reigns supreme. The narrative follows a line of heroine necromancers, wielding an arsenal of enchanted bells to command the dead. Struggling against an insidious menace threatening their world, a profound exploration of duty, destiny, and resilience unfolds. With intricate world-building, mysterious lore, and well-defined characters, the Old Kingdom series offers readers a strikingly unique and immersive experience into a realm where death doesn’t equal silence, and magic and danger lurk around every corner.
