An otherworldly adventure blending a clever mix of reality and fantasy. You may have already read ‘Clariel,’ the prequel to the ‘The Old Kingdom’ Trilogy, in which case jumping some six hundred years into the future might being a little unsettling to start with, as time has altered this land.
If this is your first foray into the Old Kingdom then read this compelling trilogy before turning your hand to ‘Clariel’. The intriguing prologue to ‘Sabriel' entices you in with a shiver of danger, chapter one causes disorientation with a fascinating blast of realism before the Kingdom calls to Sabriel and she begins a brutal battle for life. This is fascinating, gripping and yet a wonderfully enchanting read.
