Across The Wall: A Tale Of The Abhorsen And Other Stories by Garth Nix
4.0
Like any anthology, your enjoyment is going to fluctuate wildly between stories.
"Nicholas Sayre and the Creature in the Case" was a fun sequel to Lirael/Abhorsen and I really appreciated seeing more of Nicholas's character and glimmers of romance between him and Lirael.
As for the non-Abhorsen stories... Under the Lake & Hearts Desire stuck out to me because I'm a sucker for Arthurian legend, Down to the Scum Quarter was a really fun choose-your-own-adventure, and Endings was an appropriately bittersweet closing.
