Rating: Summary: From a sincere Garth Nix fan Review: I fell in love with Sabriel and Shade's Children the first time I read them , so when I saw this book I thought "Wow! I better read it" I was a bit disappointed. Nix definitely had some innovative ideas that I really, really like, but I didnt feel any character depth and everyone seemed pretty archetypal. The plot was completely predictable (at least so far) and the bok was too short to be left hanging the way it did. I am 14, so I may be a little old for this book, but to me it didn't seem as good as its predecessors.
Rating: Summary: The fall Review: The world of Tal is turned upside down. He struggles to keep his family alive. His mother's life depends on the 13 year old boy. The only thing that will help them is a prime sunstone, and these are only found on the seven towers. If you like action you will love The Seventh tower. You can't put it down.
Rating: Summary: An adventure-packed book Review: If you like fiction stories with magic, this book would be a great selection. It's one of those books where you sit and read, but then it's hard to put the book down. It's not the best book I've read, but I'd recommend reading this book because of how creative Garth Nix made the world in this book. Read it, and you'll know what I mean.
Rating: Summary: The Fall Review: This book was soooo cool. garth nix really conveys emotions well, and his sense of the fictional world around him was awesome. i recommend it to any sci-fi lover.
Rating: Summary: This is a good book Review: Sixth Grade White HeathThe Seventh Tower :The Fall by Garth Nix They say the first book in every series is the worst ... all it does is talk, describe the setting, no adventure. Well, I don't know if "they" say that , but I do. The Fall which is the first book in the series The Seventh Towers broke that rule. This is a great science fiction book and series. In the book The Fall , Tal is faced with many challenges. Tal's dad gets lost on a mission and is presumed to be dead, his mom is sick, it seems like his elders are picking on him and his little brother got caught by a shadow spirit, the servants of the powerful in his castle. All Tal's problems would be solved if he could get a sunstone, his peoples' only source of light. When following Tal's crazy uncle's idea,Tal decides to climb one of the seven towers of his home, the castle in the sky, and into the veil where sunstones grow plentifully. Here's where the book gets its name; Tal falls out of the veil onto the planet below his precious castle where he meets the Icecarls. There, Tal meets a crazy bully of a girl trying to prove herself so she can become a Shield Maiden. A Shield Maiden is a warrior who travels all over the ice in search of a battle. Like I said, she's crazy. It seems all Milla, the crazy girl, wants to do is kill Tal. They're bound together on a quest to get 2 sunstones, 1 for Tal, 1 for the Icecarles. Milla continued being mean to Tal even though Tal and his shadow guard save her from a monster that lives on the ice. Tal's shadow guard wasn't as powerful as an important person in the castle but it helped heal Mila's wounds. The shadow guard is also useful because shadow guards are feared by all Icecarls. This was a truly a good science fiction book. I personally can't wait to read the next book in the series. I hardly even minded that it left me hanging at the end. I usually hate it when the author does that, but this is an exception. I give this book two thumbs up.
Rating: Summary: Almost as good as Harry Potter!! Review: I bought this book at the Scholastic Book Fair this last week, not knowing what I was getting into. I thought, oh, I just need a new book to read and saw that one so I picked it up and bought it. Wow!! I was very surprised to read about Tal and Milla and the Castla, thinking that I might have found a new "magic" series (apart from Harry Potter). I can't wait to read the next ones and really hope that they will be as adventurous as this one!!
