I wanted to re-read this and Hollow City before Library of Souls came out. That didn't happen.
I think this book will always be special to me. It was my first fantasy book and even though it wasn't until months later, it was what made be start to read more fantasy. Without reading this I don't know if I ever would have read Harry Potter.
