Lirael


Lirael – my favorite book in the Abhorsen/Old Kingdom Trilogy. Lirael is the second book in this series by Garth Nix. This book expands on the Old Kingdom, allowing readers to more fully understand the Clayr, and know who they are in detail.

Lirael is a Daughter of the Clayr, but she doesn’t look like one. She also doesn’t have the Sight, which is the magical ability to See into the future. The whole of Clayr life revolves around the Sight, but without it, Lirael is a bit of an outcast. Lirael doesn’t have any human friends, but instead has the Disreputable Dog, her companion and advisor.

Lirael is an amazing book! I love it, and I can’t help reading it again and again.
