Garth Nix hat 16 vergangene Veranstaltungen. (show)  Garth Nix Signs in San Diego Australian native Garth Nix has, throughout the years, constantly been asked if the name that appears on his books is a pseudonym. “I guess people ask me because it sounds like the perfect name for a writer of fantasy.” He goes onto say, “However, it is my real name.” Fantasy readers came to know Garth's very real name when Sabriel, the first in his Old Kingdoms series, was released in 1995 and became a smash. Eleven years after his third entry Abhorsen, Garth returns to the world of The Old Kingdoms with Clariel. In this prequel, Clariel, the daughter of one of a notable family, is tasked with finding a loose, dangerous Free Magic creature and protecting the old King Orrikan, all while trying to avoid an undesirable arranged marriage.

His immensely popular Old Kingdom series has sold more than one million copies worldwide, inspired a generation of fantasy writers including Veronica Roth and Cassandra Clare, and earned him literary awards and legions of die-hard fans. His richly imagined world that masterfully blends fantasy and realism has been hailed by critics as “excellent high fantasy” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), “breathtaking, bittersweet, and utterly unforgettable” (Kirkus Reviews), and “riveting...powerful” (Locus).
This October, Nix returns to The Old Kingdom for the first time in more than ten years with Clariel, the thrilling prequel to the internationally bestselling series set six hundred years before the birth of Sabriel.
Clariel is the daughter of one of the most notable families in The Old Kingdom, with blood relations to the Abhorsen and, most importantly, to the King. When her family moves from the small town of Estwael to the city of Belisaere to join the High Guild of the Goldsmiths, Clariel is forced to prepare for life in polite society. A loner and hunter by nature, Clariel wants no part of this new life and dreams of escaping and journeying back to the lush green wilderness of the Great Forest. But many forces beyond her control conspire against her and her wish to pursue a much simpler life beyond the city walls: A dangerous Free Magic creature is loose in the city, her parents want to marry her off to a killer, and there is a plot brewing against the old and withdrawn King Orrikan. As she is drawn into the efforts to find and capture the creature, she discovers hidden sorcery within herself, yet it is magic that carries great dangers. Can she rise above the temptation of power, escape the unwanted marriage, and save the King? Complete with dark magic, royalty, a strong heroine, and flawless world-building, Clariel is as rich and compelling as the original Abhorsen novels and is sure to delight Old Kingdom fans as well as new readers hungry for epic fantasy adventure.

Garth Nix was born in 1963 in Melbourne, Australia, to the sound of the Salvation Army band outside playing 'Hail the Conquering Hero Comes' or possibly 'Roll Out the Barrel'. Garth left Melbourne at an early age for Canberra (the federal capital) and stayed there till he was nineteen, when he left to drive around the UK in a beat-up Austin with a trunk full of books and a Silver-Reed typewriter.
Despite a wheel literally falling off the Austin, Garth survived to return to Australia and study at the University of Canberra. After finishing his degree in 1986 he worked in a bookshop, then as a book publicist, a publisher's sales representative, and editor. Along the way he was also a part-time soldier in the Australian Army Reserve, serving in an Assault Pioneer platoon for four years. Garth left publishing to work as a public relations and marketing consultant from 1994-1997, till he became a full-time writer in 1998. He did that for a year before becoming a part-time literary agent in 1999. In January 2002 Garth went back to writing full time again, despite his belief that full-time writing explains the strange behaviour of many authors.
Garth currently lives in a beach suburb of Sydney, with his wife Anna, a publisher.  | |
