ABHORSEN

The amazing conclusion to Garth Nix's trilogy makes it one of the best series available. The production combines the solidity of the world created by Garth Nix, the magic of the story, and Tim Curry's ability to breathe emotion into each character. Curry's narration forms a rich setting that draws the listener into the Old Kingdom. He also injects pure evil into his villain as Nix finally allows listeners to discover the true identities of two of his leading characters. The conclusion to Nix's allegory of war and peace will draw fantasy fans and fans of strong heroines. E.J.F. 2004 YALSA Selection
