About this listen
She had become an Abhorsen, Lirael thought, at least on the outside.
Don't miss books one and two of this trilogy! Sabriel and Lirael: Daughter of the Clayr.©2003 Garth Nix (P)2003 Random House, Inc.Critic reviews
"At once an allegory regarding war and peace and a testament to friendship, this thought-provoking fantasy also resolves the true identities of the popular Dog and Mogget characters and suggests that Nix may still have more tricks up his sleeve." ( Publishers Weekly)

An amazing and captivating fantasy series - made even better by Tim Curry’s reading. RECOMMENDED
Brilliant story with strong engaging characters. Great family listening on long journeys. Brilliantly read by Tim Curry.

Tim Curry is a diamond
I can’t tell if I enjoyed the story as it was well written or if Tim Curry just kept me engaged throughout! It was very enjoyable to listen to and to continue the story, though Sam and Lirael are quite childish when you are no longer a teenager yourself! Overall I’d recommend these three, especially if you enjoyed them in the past

Heart-stopping
Abhorsen starts with one of the most heart-stopping moments ever. Anything I say about the plot in this third of the Old Kingdom books inevitably contains spoilers, so I shan't. If you haven't listened to Sabriel and Lirael, then go back and do so first, you won't know what's going on here and you won't have already fallen in love with all the characters. All three are read by Tim Curry and all in all, are pretty much my idea of perfection.
Actually, the ending is pretty heart-stopping too. Unreservedly recommended.

Epilogue music
Good narration throughout then ruined by overwhelming and unnecessary music added during the epilogue which makes the narration difficult to hear.

Magic.
Tim Curry is an absolute joy. If only he could have continued narrating the series! I have no doubt that I'll be re-listening to books 1-3 many times over.
