Story
The adventuring industry drives the economy of Arth, a world much like our own but with more magic and fewer vowels. Monsters' hoards are claimed, bought by corporate interests, and sold off to plunder funds long before the Heroes' Guild actually kills the beasts. Of course, that's a terrible arrangement for the Shadowkin; orcs, goblins, kobolds, and their ilk must apply for to become Noncombatant Paper Carriers (or NPCs) to avoid being killed and looted by heroes.

Story
A certain college girl who's loved books ever since she was a little girl dies in an accident and is reborn in another world she knows nothing about. She is now Myne, the sickly five-year-old daughter of a poor soldier. To make things worse, the world she's been reborn in has a very low literacy rate and books mostly don't exist. She'd have to pay an enormous amount of money to buy one.

Pretty good
There's a lot of negative reviews online saying how they couldn't stand the moping, whining teenagers. It's not all that don't worry

Very satisfying
Tim Curry does an excellent job as narrator of this novel, which I enjoyed reading some years ago. I thought his narration was stronger than his character voices, but they were still good and the overall listening experience was both engaging and very satisfying.

Great series.
I have been enthralled with this series so far. Tim Curry has an amazing ability to bring the world and it's characters to life. Moving straight into Abhorsen!

Prepare to go back to the old kingdom!
Tim Curry's performance is unquestionably brilliant in this audiobook. My fiancé has begged me to read this book for a while, and I think the audiobook certainly does the material justice.
Void of lulls or boring bits, the story surged toward a cliffhanger ending that makes me want to download Abhorsen immediately.
I have the smallest qualm with how weak the protagonists are, especially Prince Sammeth and his ceaseless whining. But I love how Lirael comes to find a hidden strength within herself.
I enjoyed this thoroughly and would reccomend it as a must read/listen.

Magic and adventure
Lirael, the solitary daughter of the Clayr, and Sameth, the reluctant Abhorsen-in-Waiting, both seek the same man who may hold the key to an ancient evil stirring in the West. But the Dead cannot be laid to rest until the strange secret linking the fate of Lirael and Sameth is revealed. The Disreputable Dog is one to remember! A witty, well-written story about magic and adventure.

Childhood classic
Loved the audiobook of my favourite story growing up. Bonus as it’s the same narrator as the first in the series.

Love This Book
I have read this book numerous times and just finished listening to it for the second time. It never gets old and the excitement is always there, just waiting to be shared.
Tim Curry reads very well and assists in capturing all the right moods. The female characters do sound quite masculine, but that is no drama at all.
I would highly recommend to anyone - except maybe children. Some concepts might be a little frightening or mature for those under teen years.
