A review by smimholt
The Abhorsen Trilogy Box Set, by Garth Nix

5.0

The first of this trilogy can stand alone, and in my opinion is the best of the three books. I enjoyed the second, but expected resolution at the end. Instead the second book carried over into the third, which was my least favorite. I really liked that the main characters were female, and were stronger and generally more positive than the males. This was refreshing, especially from a male author. I enjoyed watching the transition the characters made from beginning to end; it seemed realistic and believable. I'm glad I found time to finally finish this trilogy.
