Description: Praise for SABRIEL: "Rich, complex, involving, hard to put down, excellent high fantasy." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Nix has created an ingenious, icy world. The action charges along at a gallop. A page-turner for sure." - ALA Booklist (starred review) "By turns rousing, charming and slyly funny, Sabriel is an engaging tale that slays sexual stereotypes along with its monsters." - San Francisco Chronicle Sabriel is a winner, a fantasy that reads like realism. Here is a world with the same solidity and four dimensional authority as our own, created with invention, clarity, and intelligence. I congratulate Garth Nix. And I look forward to reading his next piece of work." - Philip Pullman "A wonderful new fantasy filled with rich and complex imagery." - Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) "Nix's monsters are scary and repulsive, his sense of humor is downright sneaky, and he puts his heroine through engrossing physical and emotional wringers.
