Title: Wonderful conclusion to a captivating trilogy
Review: Garth Nix never writes the same story twice, even within a series. He is possibly the best writer out there in the world of YA and children's literature. I love the unique characters and the way they surprise you. The story is exciting and stomach-clenchingly engaging. You wonder what will happen next, and you can't predict the next event. You can't tell if a character is good or evil by his surname and physiogamy. Characters struggle and waiver in their morality and resolve, just like real people. If the formulaic and predictable "Percy Jackson" type of novel is getting old, try anything by this author. Abhorsen is a real novel with a real story, not just the same deck of cards shuffled and re-dealt. Nix is an intelligent writer that does not coddle his reader. It is challenging and meaningful and will both entertain and elevate the reader.
