I loved this book it was just as good as I remembered from when I was in middle school if not better since I understand it much better. I loved the characters especially Sabriel she was a really well written character a very mature girl I really like the way her mind works she is just so very interesting to read about. I really loved the plot it started out really interesting and just got better with each page I liked the concept very much it was a really good read. So overall this was a great start to a even better series will read more soon.
