A review by cosymilko
Abhorsen by Garth Nix
5.0
I loved this conclusion.
In every way Lirael built me up and led me to this point Abhorsen took us there and blew my mind. I sped through this in a day. I couldn't not finish it when more and more things were being revealed.
The story of the Destroyer, and how it would be defeated was something I needed to know. I knew that if Nix had Lirael and the others destroy the Destroyer I would have thrown the book. It wasn't something they had the power to do and I'm very impressed with his solution.
The Disreputable Dog was brilliant. I didn't enjoy that Mogget was bound by Ranna but I figured this allowed the Dog to shine. It really reinforced that Sameth was second to Lirael.
I want to slap Nix and kiss him for the way he writes in character deaths.
I am going to read the Keys to the Kingdom series next. I can't wait.
