Had to get all the Feegle voices out of my head after Wee Free Men, before I picked up the next one in the series.

The Sabriel series is REALLY good! REALLY REALLY.
Sabriel, Lirael, Abhorrsen - are the three titles.

like the 'His Dark Materials' trilogy (or more loosely the HP series) these are YA fiction that are based on a 'coming of age/rites of passage' format. BUT just likst HDM and HP when they are read by adults they have greater meaning and content.

I loved the Sabriel series because the series is lead by a very strong young female character.
