Across the Wall: A Tale of the Abhorsen and Other Stories by Garth Nix

4.0

There is a little bit of everything in this collection of short stories. It was not what I was expecting or actually hoping for, but was good in the way a short story collection is meant to be good. Each story was a stand alone and at the end of nearly every one I had the feeling that I was in the presence of a great writer.
My regret is that I really wanted more Old Kingdom, so the disappointment had nothing to do with any lack of quality or craft. My bad.
