Summary: Abhorsen trilogy
Review: Ive now read the entire three book Abhorsen trilogy, and I have to say that it is one of the most clear well thought out alternate worlds i have ever come into contact with. in these books, you get enough information on the world surrounding the characters that you feel like you can step inside with them... i can't reccomend this book highly enough!

Summary: A little hard to get into, but ultimately very enjoyable.
Review: The narrator Tim Curry was awesome! His reading of this story was spectacular. I tried to read the book, but found it very hard to get into. So I bought the audiobook. What a treasure. We ended up listening to it twice on a long trip. I can't wait to hear Lirael narrated also by Tim Curry.

Summary: My Favorite Book in the Series
Review: I have read all the books in the series and this is definately the best. Sabriel lives in a world where the dead dont stay dead and one person (her father) keeps them dead. Her Dad gets stuck in death and she has to go in to the Old Kingdom to rescue him. The series is amazing and should be seen by anybody who is a fan of fantasey.

Summary: Sabriel
Review: If you read this book, be prepared to read the other two sequels. Though I wouldn't encourage people who have read Shade's Children and loved it to read Sabriel. Sabriel is very very diffrent, but is a lot better in my opinion than Shade's Children. I doubt you will have regrets if you get this book.

Summary: MY LEAST FAV. IN THE TRILOGY BUT STILL A GREAT BOOK
Review: I READ LIRAEL BEFORE SABRIEL(I KNOW I CHEATED) AND WAS EXPECTING A LITTLE BIT OF A BETTER BOOK... BUT THIS ONE IS STILL A WONDERFULL ADDITION TO THE SERIS. SABRIEL IS A YOUNG WOMAN GOING TO THE OLD KINGDOM FOR THE FIRST TIME TO TRY AND FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED TO HER FATHER WHO IS TRAPPED IN DEATH. SHE MATURES BELIVABLEY THROUGHOUT THE BOOK, BATTLING THE DEAD AND SLOWLY FOLLOWING IN LOVE. A GOOD BOOK COMPLETE WITH SACRIFICE,SADDNESS,DANGER,LOVE,A LITTLE HUMOR, THE DEAD, AND SOME UNFORGETTABLE CHARECTERS.
NOTE:IT IS POSSIBLE TO READ THE SECOND AND THIRD BOOK WITHOUT THIS ONE AND NOT GET CONFUSED

Summary: Notes on the best book in the world
Review: The book starts at Sabriel's colledge. Her father is dead, or traped in death,and three guesses who has to save him. Only,things get more complecated when Sabriel saves Touchstone, a man who was traped as a figure head. It is then that Sabriel finds out that the whole world,both Anclestire and the Old Kingdom, will be destroyed if the great dead,Kerrigor, gets out of death. A book full of humor, action and romance,it is truely the best tale of dark secrets, dangerous magic and deep love!
