Garth Nix is writing more Abhorsen books!?! I did not know! Thanks for telling me!

Yes! Isn't that awesome?
Nix is writing one that will be a sequel to the third book, and he is also writing one about Clairel, who ends up loosing grace as an abhorsen somehow. I haven't read the books in a long time, but I believe she becomes Chlorr the Mask from "Sabriel".

I am very intrigued by how Miles sounds. I will read it and tell you what I think!
