A collection of short stories.
ACROSS THE WALL brings together an eclectic mix of Garth Nix’s writing spanning several years.
The
opening story is the 2005 World Book Day novella and Old Kingdom story
NICHOLAS SAYRE AND THE CREATURE IN THE CASE, winner of two prestigious
Aurealis Awards.
The rest of the collection includes two tales
inspired by Arthurian legend, a war story, a western, a traditional
tale with a twist and a hilarious choose-your-own-adventure spoof.
The
volume is introduced by the author himself and, even better, so is each
story – giving context, anecdotes and a generous dollop of Nix’s own
wry humour.
Plus! A final bonus section of frequently asked questions for which Garth Nix supplies vital answers.
The series
Also known as the Abhorsen Trilogy (only in the USA).
