    Novodobá klasika nielen tínedžerskej fantasy prichádza dobiť srdcia slovenských fanúšikov. Sabriel má osemnásť rokov a práve zložila záverečné skúšky na internátnej akadémii. Do konca roka ostávajú dva týždne, keď sa uprostred noci zjaví v škole mŕtvy vyslanec. Priniesol jej otcove nástroje: nekromantické zvonce a Abhorsenov meč. Sabriel sa vydáva do Starého kráľovstva, aby našla otca a pomohla mu. Odmieta sa zmieriť s myšlienkou, že by mohol byť mŕtvy. Staré kráľovstvo je však v úplnom rozvrate: dvadsať rokov bezvládia spôsobilo, že sa všade potulujú voľnomagické stvorenia a mŕtvi, ktorých do sveta živých nekontrolovane povolávajú nekromanti. Sabriel zisťuje, že aj jej otec bol nekromant, ale taký, ktorý mŕtvych spútaval a slúžil Výsade a kráľovstvu. Sabriel, hoci nepripravená, musí zaujať jeho miesto. V nadchádzajúcej bitke budú totiž proti sebe bojovať sily Života a Smrti. A Sabriel bude musieť čeliť vlastnému osudu.

    So Sabriel stvoril Garth Nix modernú klasiku fantasy. S voľným pokračovaním Lirael posunul hranice vlastného sveta a predstavivosti ešte ďalej, aby presvedčil čitateľov, že patrí medzi špičku svetovej fantasy. Otca nepoznala a matka ju opustila. Aj napriek tomu sa snaží mladá Lirael zapadnúť do spoločenstva Clayriek, s ktorými žije v rozľahlom Ľadovci ďaleko na severe. Aby mohla byť plnohodnotným členom, musí už len získať Zrak – vrodenú schopnosť všetkých Clayriek zrieť budúcnosť. No Lirael koluje v žilách iná krv, a preto spočíva osud Starého kráľovstva v jej rukách. Nebezpečný nekromant totiž plánuje oslobodiť mocného nepriateľa, ktorý sa vzpiera kráľovskej rodine, zahmlieva Zrak Clayriek a hrozí deštrukciou všetkých väzieb medzi Životom a Smrťou. Lirael a princ Sameth musia odhaliť svoje pravé dedičstvo a postaviť sa pradávnej sile, ktorá ohrozuje nielen Staré kráľovstvo.

    The long-buried secrets of the Old Kingdom and the Ninth Gate are revealed in the sequel to Sabriel and Lirael. Orannis, the Destroyer, has been freed from its subterranean prison and now seeks to unleash its terrible powers. Only Lirael, Abhorsen-in-Waiting, has any chance of stopping this enemy of all Life. As she and her companions - Sameth, the Disreputable Dog and Mogget - set out on their fated journey, Lirael has no idea of what lies ahead. Only days earlier, Lirael was merely a Second Assistant Librarian. Now, with only a vision from the Clayr to guide her and without the experience of Abhorsen Sabriel and King Touchstone, she must search both Life and Death for some means to defeat the Destroyer. Before it is too late...

    Lirael is no longer a shy Second Assistant Librarian. She is the Abhorsen-in-Waiting, with dead creatures to battle and Free Magic entities to bind. She's also a Remembrancer, wielder of the Dark Mirror. Lirael lost one of her hands in the binding of Orannis, but now she has a new hand, one of gilded steel and Charter Magic. When Lirael finds Nicholas Sayre lying unconscious after being attacked by a hideous Free Magic creature, she uses her powers to save him. But Nicholas is deeply tainted with Free Magic. Fearing it will escape the Charter mark that seals it within his flesh and bone, Lirael seeks help for Nick at her childhood home, the Clayr's Glacier. Even as Lirael and Nick return to the Clayr, a young woman from the distant north braves the elements and many enemies in a desperate attempt to bring a message to Lirael from her long-dead mother, Arielle. Ferin brings a dire warning about the Witch With No Face. But who is the Witch, and what is she planning? Once more a great danger threatens the Old Kingdom, and it must be forestalled not only in the living world, but also in the cold, remorseless river of Death.
