Book

A Confusion of Princes (2012)

This was a very enjoyable read. The protagonist, Khemri is a fledgling prince who takes us along his journey. He is barely out of his prince candidature when the assassination attempts begin. All princes want to become the next Emperor but standing in their way are the millions of other princes. ...

Der Sturm beginnt (2014)

Trouble Twisters ist das erste Buch von Garth Nix, das ich gelesen habe und ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, ob es am Buch oder dem Autor lag, aber so wirklich mitreißen konnte mich das Buch nicht. Zunächst einmal hatte ich ein Problem mit den Anfängen der Geschichte. Wir sind es auch "solchen" Fan...

Troubletwisters (2011)

3.5I think people have been a bit harsh with this book.yes it is predictable but childrens books often are. its more about the characters and environment both of which I liked in this book.It was slow at times but not slow enough for me to put down and read something else. this to me seems aimed ...

Lord Sunday (2010)

Endings are hard, I suppose. I just wasn't that thrilled with the explanation given for why everything was happening. This was very fast paced. It felt like everything happened so fast. I appreciated the split in perspectives, it fleshed out the difference happenings of the ending but...what happ...

Sir Hereward and Mister Fitz: Three Adventures (2000)

I first learned about Sir Hereward and Mister Fitz when reading a short story collection called Rogues, in which they appeared. I was so taken with the characters and by the author's inventiveness that I just had to read more in the form of this book which contains three great short stories. I wo...

Book

Fire Above, Fire Below (2013)

I really love this story, about a dying Dragon under the city trying to get out from the earth but this old one can't so the humans need to send after a "Dragonborn" to try to fix it for them.I really like Garth Nixs stories, the few ones I've read inside different anthologies have been superb an...

Book

Sabriel (1996)

I shall write a wee bit about my thoughts on this book as I read, for I do not trust my foggy brain to keep up with them if I wait until the last minute.*I like the juxtaposition of 20th Century (early) Ancelstierre with a medieval-esque world of the Old Kingdom. It threw me for a loop at first, ...

Book

The Ragwitch (2004)

Are there such things as evil, demonic dolls that consume your essence, your very soul? (And no, this is not about Furbies. And for those of you that had previously forgotten about those, you are welcome.) But what if there were such toys, or at least just one? Well, in the mind of Garth Nix ther...

Book

Lady Friday (2007)

For me, this was an eagerly awaited read, as Keys to the Kingdom is one of my favorite series, and each installment always leaves me wanting more. Which is no different in the case of Lady Friday. The wait was a little worse on this one, since Lady Friday is actually introduced in the final pages...

Book

Shade's Children (1998)

I just realized that this book was originally released in 1997. I had no idea. My edition was published in 2012 so I was stupid in thinking that this was a newer release. How have I not come across this before? Anyways, I love Garth Nix and I loved this book. I am not a big science fiction fan. I...

Book

Aenir (2000)

This book is by far the best out of the three that I read. The writing shifted away from focusing on the world and pushing the world and started focusing on plot and action and ‘are they going to make it out alive?’ About halfway through the book I remember thinking, ‘now we’re getting somewhere....

Drowned Wednesday (2006)

The book I read was The Keys to the Kingdom: Drowned Wednesday by the author Garth Nix, who has also, wrote some other action, fiction, books. This story was about a Kid in an ordinary town who has lots of problems in his life till one day after almost dying from an asthma attack everything chang...

Book

Sir Thursday (2007)

This might be the best in the series yet. Action packed, quick-paced, shifting viewpoints and parallel stories--I hardly put it down!We begin with Arthur desperately trying to get home, after Wednesday's adventures, only to find that he can't get through the Front Door. As it turns out, this happ...

Book

Abhorsen (2003)

I would like to give this book four stars. it has some wonderful moments and it tells a good story. On the whole I enjoyed it, but not four stars worth. Why?First sadly it's just not as good as the first book in this "series" (I'll explain the quotes later.) I really liked Sabriel and had these o...

Mister Monday (2006)

Mister Monday - Book One of the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix. (Fantasy; Young Adult)Reason for Reading? After not really enjoying Jim Butcher's work, I wanted to read something that was both light and that I knew I'd enjoy. I knew this book fit the criteria. Also, I read this book ...

Across the Wall: A Tale of the Abhorsen and Other Stories (2015)

A re-read - due to my somehow forgetting to mark down that I'd read the book, and finding another copy at the thrift store for $1. The stories are good enough that I didn't mind re-reading. Nicholas Sayre and the Creature in the Case — This story features characters from the 'Abhorsen' series,...

Grim Tuesday (2005)

Grim Tuesday is the second book in a series of seven known as the Keys to the Kingdom series each book named after a day of the week. The first book Mister Monday was a book I reviewed a long while ago. I had a desire to go through and finish the series but needed to re-read the first two and a h...

Superior Saturday (2008)

The ending didn't really exude the sense of story self-containment which the other books in this series have. Ok, it could be argued that none of the stories are self-contained. However the last page in this volume, far more than the others, felt like it was simply a cliff-hanging pause between t...
