Garth Nix is one of my favorite Young Adult writers, mainly cause his books are universal. I could recommend them to any of my friends, or the occasional reader, age no bar.
"A boy – a Piper’s child – stepped through the gap and, without a word of warning, lunged at Arthur with a six-foot- long, three-tined gardening fork, each of the tines red-hot, the air around them blurred from the intense heat they radiated."
Today's Teaser is taken from the end of Chapter 3, the page I am on. The book is Lord Sunday, book 7 in the Keys of the Kingdom.
If you haven't read Garth Nix, a great place to start is with The Old Kingdom series; beginning with Abhorsen. Highly unique.

Arthur needs to watch out. That sounds dangerous.

Children with deadly weapons? Sounds interesting. Great teaser!
ReplyDeleteHere’s my teaser from The Inheritance.
I love the Abhorsen trilogy. I keep meaning to get to the Keys to the Kingdom series. Looking at your "you might also like" posts, it looks like we like a lot of the same books. I'll subscribe :)

ReplyDeleteThe teaser sounds intense, brave kid.
ReplyDeleteBook 7? wow I'm not sure I want to read something that long again, considering I was dissapointed with Harry Potter
:)
ReplyDelete@Novroz - Its really not too bad, the first few books are pretty short! And at no point do the pages go to the length that the HP books went to :)
Awesome teaser! That sounds like a very dangerous weapon there. I've seen that book around, but never read any in the series . . .
ReplyDeleteI've read The Abhorsen Trilogy--I loved those books! I loved Lirael. :)
Thanks for commenting on my teaser!
Hah! I remember this since I just finished it recently. :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Kah, I should have known we would read it at the same time :) We do read a lot of similar authors!
