Lireal was a completely satisfying sequal to Sabrial. Both books take place in the Old Kingdom, a dazzling world created by Garth Nix as a sort of parrallel universe. The characters of Lireal are real and believable, especially Lireal, herself, a young girl stuggling to find her true identity while dealing with being distinctly different from the other Clayr. This is a powerful and enjoyable book that I would recommend to any one who has ever imagined another world.
