After finishing the Abhorsen trilogy, I felt incomplete, as it should be with a good series, it leaves you hanging with anticipation. You hope to hear about what they're going to do next, but you realize ". it's over?" That was how I felt until I stumbled upon this series. These books have Garth Nix's classic prosaic style of writing, with interestingly new concepts woven in, the Morrow Days; Dawn, Noon and Dusk; and the Will. I was hooked from the very first page. That's what Garth Nix's books did for me. This concept of using time as a base for fantasy is not a new one, but I like the way it was done with this series. I read the books without the nagging feeling of ". hey, this reminds me of Lord of the Rings. " which gave me great hope for further reading of the series (well, if there is some anyways, don't tell me, I like living in my little world. ). But yeah, this idea about using keys for weapons, and Nothing. It makes me happy to see new material on the market. This book fully merits 5 stars. I hope you read this book and enjoy it as immensely as I have. Mark R Guthrie
