Bookseller recommendation
“Few audiobook narrations have stuck with me as much as Tim Curry's rendition of Sabriel. Curry's performance is the light on Nix's characters that allows them to cast shadow on the wall behind them, illuminating the depth that was always there and bringing them to vivid and believable life. There are few more perfect pairings in audiobook history than Curry's voice and Nix's haunting and unforgettable fantasy novel. ”
— Sage • Country Bookshelf
A tale of dark secrets, deep love, and dangerous magic!
Since childhood, Sabriel has lived outside the walls of the Old Kingdom, away from the random power of Free Magic, and away from the Dead who refuse to stay dead. But now her father, the Charter-Mage Abhorsen, is missing, and to find him Sabriel must cross back into that world. With Mogget, whose feline form hides a powerful, perhaps malevolent spirit, and Touchstone, a young Charter Mage, Sabriel travels deep into the Old Kingdom. There she confronts an evil that threatens much more than her life--and comes face-to-face with her own hidden destiny.
Garth Nix was born in 1963 and grew up in Canberra, Australia. He has worked in the publishing industry and currently lives in Sydney, where he is both a marketing communications consultant and a writer. Sabriel is his first novel for young adults. It is the first of a trilogy.
