From Amazon.com

Tal, a Chosen of the Orange Order, is having the worst luck lately. Just when he is getting ready for the Day of Ascension--a day when all the 13-year-old Chosen from the Castle of Seven Towers enter the spirit world of Aenir--his father disappears with the family's only primary Sunstone, which Tal needs for the ascension. Without it, he cannot enter Aenir and bind himself to a Shadowspirit--a kind of guardian being that serves as a friend and protector to the person it is bound to. And without a Shadowspirit, Tal will lose both his Chosen status and any hope of finding a cure for his mother's mysterious wasting illness, a cure that can only come from Aenir. Tal tries to beg, borrow, and even steal a Sunstone. But his attempts fail, and in his final act of thievery, Tal is thrown off the Castle of Seven Towers by a powerful Shadowspirit Keeper and into an adventure beyond his imagining.

Australian fantasy author Garth Nix (well known for his novels Sabriel and Shade's Children, both ALA list picks) has joined with Lucasfilm to launch a six-book fantasy series about Tal's world, of which The Fall is the first installment. Packed with excitement and wonderfully weird creatures like the living sea of Selski and the hungry, one-horned Merwin, Nix's latest tale will enchant readers. Containing elements of The Golden Compass and the Harry Potter books, The Seventh Tower is an epic fantasy not to be missed. (Ages 11 to 14) --Jennifer Hubert



Product Description

Tal lives high above the Dark World in an isolated mountaintop castle where light is the ultimate commodity. When one day Tal tries to steal a sunstone–the only way of assuring his family’s safety–the attempt backfires, and Tal must flee the castle into the unknown.

3.0étoiles sur 5 The Seventh Tower Series' The Fall (Book 1), Jui 14 2004
Par Terry Farrell "Jadzia Dax" (Concord, North Carolina, United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Tal Graile-Rerem, a twelve year old of the Orange Order of the Chosen has not been having the best of luck lately. His father, Rerem is missing, presumed to be dead, taking along with him their only live Primary Sunstone. His little brother, Gref, is missing. His sister, Kusi, has been put into the care of his evil cousins, Lallek and Korrek. And his most immediate problem is his mother, Graile. She has been sick, and when her weakening Sunstone goes out, they all will be forever banished to the rank of the Underfolk, the worst possible punishment that a Chosen can receive. So he is climbing the Orange tower to get a Primary Sunstone. If he can get one, he can possibly promote his family to the Yellow Level. As he gets near the Veil, a mysterious cover that separates the real world from the spirit world of Aenir, he finds a free shadow, called the Keeper. Suddenly, he is picked up by the wind and carried out, far, far away. So far, he is dropped onto the Ice, and he can't see the Castle. There's nothing out there. Or is there? How will Tal get back to his home in the Castle? Read the first book of this compelling series, The Fall, to find out!

I liked this book best because of the action-packed second half. The story kind of plodded along during the first part, but after that, it became more interesting as Tal journeyed towards home, to look for a sunstone for his family. It also became pretty neat to see the way that he sees his world. I'd recommend this book to readers ages 8-14, and also to fiction and fantasy lovers that think they are up for a bit of an adventure!

5.0étoiles sur 5 Awesome Book, Jui 12 2004
Par "ushnarkthemighty" (Tewksbury, MA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
This book is the wonderful start to a fantastic series. It tells the story of a young boy who has to find a primary sunstone to save his family, but has a mishap, leading to many adventures. Later in the series, he uncovers a conspiracy to overthrow the Empress. A fantastic book and series. You really should buy it.

5.0étoiles sur 5 A Work of Genius, Mai 10 2004
Par Un client
This book starts you out with great storytelling and continues through with great action sequences, suspense, and great spells. In my personal opinion, I see this book as a complete work of genius. And if Garth Nix is as smart as he appears to be then he should continue to entertain people with his magnificent storytelling.
