Title: Not as haunting as Sabriel but more complex
Product review: Good book. For some reason, not quite as haunting as Sabriel, but more complex. Sabriel was more of a stand-alone story. This second novel in the series and the third novel Abhorsen run straight together like one big book. Lirael is a much more conflicted character than Sabriel was and the early chapters with her growing up among the Clayr and her work in the library are fascinating. Prince Sammeth is also much more conflicted than was Touchstone in the first book. Good character development. The Disreputable Dog got on my nerves initially but then grew on me since her "dogness" was very real and detailed.
