Title: still a great read
Review: I originally read the three books in this trilogy over ten years ago, as a teenager, when they were first released. They stayed with me, so when I so them in paperback recently, I picked them up. Well, they read just as well the second time, more than ten years later, as an adult. What I really enjoy about these is the way the author draws metaphors and comparisons between two things that only exist in her books, yet the metaphor works, you have a picture in your mind, you know what she means. Highly enjoyable, but the ending was not as I remembered--my memory must have rewritten the ending in the 12 or so years since I first read the trilogy. I would highly recommend these to any lovers of fantasy, especially teens, but adults too. If you enjoyed these books, you might also wish to try "Sabriel" by Garth Nix.
