This is based on a fairy tale I had never heard before. The actual fairy tale is told in snippets at the beginning of each chapter, so you get the expanded story along with the tale from which it was developed. I enjoyed the story, told from many points of view, and covering 16th century England (as opposed to Germany, home of the Brothers' Grimm who wrote the tale) and an adjacent fairy realm. I could have done without the language of the times, though. The thees and thous and dosts and whilsts wore on me. And I have yet to figure out why it was the trend then to use an in place of if sometimes. But getting around the language wasn't too daunting of a task to keep me from finishing the story.

"Lirael" is neither the beginning nor the end (thank goodness) of this remarkable fantasy series by Garth Nix. If you haven't already read "Sabriel", you might want to put "Lirael" aside and begin at the beginning. The middle book could stand alone, especially the story of Lirael herself, but you will miss nuances of the Philosophy and Geography of Death if you don't start with "Sabriel". The only work I can compare this series to is Philip Pullman's "Golden Compass" trilogy, although I prefer Nix's magical world-building. If I ever die and go to fantasy heaven, I hope it resembles his immense library beneath glacier and mountain, where each door opens into a separate mystery. In the catacombs beneath the library, Lirael discovers how to turn herself into an ice otter or a barking owl, reads "The Book of Remembrance and Forgetting", and duels with the monstrous Stilken. However, "Lirael" isn't just about Lirael. Prince Sameth, heir apparent to Sabriel as the Old Kingdom's champion against evil necromancers, also comes of age in this volume. There are plenty of evil necromancers to go around. In fact, at the end of this book, it appears as though they are winning the war to turn the Old Kingdom into a kingdom of the dead. One fault should be noted. The two main characters spend too much text feeling sorry for themselves. Lirael pursues an impossible dream, while Prince Sameth tries to escape from an impossible nightmare. I think the author's editor must have read "Sabriel" and said, "Garth, this is a great fantasy but your heroine, Sabriel is pretty darn self-sufficient. Readers can't relate to that. You need to make your characters more vulnerable." So that's exactly what Nix did in Volume Two. Vulnerability often shades over into self-pity in "Lirael"---too often for my liking. It's not enough of an annoyance to bypass this fantasy. Hopefully, in the yet-to-be-published "Abhorsen", Lirael and Prince Sameth will stop whining and take up the burden of defending the Old Kingdom. Lirael is already headed in that direction, along with her friend the Disreputable Dog. Garth, I advise you to stop listening to your editor. You were pitch-perfect in "Sabriel". Retune 'Astarael, the Sorrowful' that "casts all who hear it deep into Death" and finish this marvelous trilogy the way you began it.

There were loose ends in the story not cleared up in the end of it. There was a jump in time was not well defined and threw me off in the story. I had to reread a few times to get back into it. Maybe the author plans to write a story about the loose ends but who knows. I am not mentioned those as to not spoil the tale.
Read this book under the assumption that the author would be as good as Jodi Picuoult. Needless to say, she was not! It wasnt until the end of the book where it became decent enough to want to read the book.

This book has convinced me that the world is using its resources, especially food and energy, at unsustainable rates. Something therefore needs to be done to reduce our stress on the environment before shortages are forced upon us. While predicting future disaster for the world as a whole if we continue in our currant consumption trends, Diamond avoids fear-mongering by offering solutions and reasons for hope. He also explains that everyone should care about growing environmental problems because they will create tangible costs for everyone. Environmentalism isn't just for environmentalists anymore.
