Clariel: The Lost Abhorsen

(2) YA Six centuries before the events of Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen, seventeen-year-old Clariel wants nothing more than to live in the Great Forest--until her parents are murdered. This prequel is a tonal departure; Clariel is both less likable and less noble-minded than Nix's other heroic protagonists. But series fans will treasure this long-awaited opportunity to return to a much-loved world, built with originality and richness.
