I was a little distracted whille listening to this, so perhaps its unfair, but i did not find it good enough to continue the series
adventurous medium-paced

I had really high hopes for this but it just didn't end up doing much for me--I had a hard time connecting with the characters and the plot wasn't particularly riveting.

After a reread nine years after I initially loved this book, I still love this book. I hadn't remembered that the print was so large, which initially concerned me, but then the action took off and I fell in love all over again. Sabriel was exactly the composed, competent but not entirely confident narrator that this story needed. I loved that she started the story with much more experience than we knew about but needed to gain so much more before the final confrontation on the hill, because there was the mystery of how she would get out of a situation and then that wonderful reassurance when she pulled out some bit of knowledge and training to save her butt, but we didn't lack for character development, because she needed still greater knowledge and training to make it as far as she did. Nix pulled this off really really well.

adventurous mysterious medium-paced

Fun ideas but third person narrative voice is weirdly broken with random bits of internal character perspectives

DID NOT FINISH: 6%

Just not in an audiobook mood. Also, this feels like the kind of book I can read faster than I can listen.
