A tale of dark secrets, deep love, and dangerous magic!

Since childhood, Sabriel has lived outside the walls of the Old Kingdom, away from the random power of Free Magic, and away from the Dead who refuse to stay dead. But now her father, the Charter-Mage Abhorsen, is missing, and to find him Sabriel must cross back into that world. With Mogget, whose feline form hides a powerful, perhaps malevolent spirit, and Touchstone, a young Charter Mage, Sabriel travels deep into the Old Kingdom. There she confronts an evil that threatens much more than her life--and comes face-to-face with her own hidden destiny.

Amazing, this kept me company on my long nights with my newborn. Tim Curry is an incredible narrator.

I love Sabriel but this made me love it more.

I chose this book as a palette cleanser between a series of grim dark books. At first I thought it was going to be a Harry Potter-like book. But oh no. This becomes a mature dark epic very quickly with an interesting magic system and characters to root for.
Go in with low expectations and you'll find an adventure that reminded me of a dark fairytale. I WILL continue this series. It was also a joy to hear Tim Curry in a healthy state again.

A surprisingly good dark fantasy.

This was the first book I ever read over 20 years ago. And recently added to my Audible library, to listen with my children. It’s a great story and beginning to the series by Garth Nix, I have and will continue to listen/read this story for years to come! #Audible1

Great series

It seemed to glaze over some things a bit quickly but ultimately was a very interesting and seemingly unique approach to a genre that is pretty overdone these days. I read it when I was younger and am glad I came back to listen again now.

Unique Fantasy Story

Wonderful storytelling by Garth Nix and narration by Tim Curry. The cheeky cat mogget has all the best one liners.

Excellent!!
