Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom)
Date undefinedexcelent book, 6th in series. Difficult to highlight the general story without giving away the story so far within the past five books.
Generally Arther, a run of the mill human boy, is transfered to a mystical house somewhere outside of the known universe, in which he has to gain control of seven magical keys which will aid him to fulfill his destiny as the heir to the Architect (the creater of the univers)
takes you away into a fantasy land where things are not as they should be.
my advise is to start at Mister Monday and plough through in sequance
good listening

Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom)
Date undefinedThis is the 6th book in the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix. This was a good book but the ending left me puzzled. I listened to this on audio book and the quality of the audio book was excellent.
Arthur and Suzy venture into Superior Saturday's realm to try and retrieve the 6th part of the Will. Arthur is finding it harder and harder to stay human, and is really starting to struggle with the part of himself that is turning into something else. The lower house is being destroyed by Nothing and things are looking bleak on all sides.
This was a well written book. I like how Arthur is having to fight with himself as he begins to become something more than (or less than) human. Suzy is by far what makes this book; she has been my favorite character throughout the series. Saturday's part of the house is very interesting and creative. The book is very fast-paced and up until the end I was thoroughly enjoying this book.
All of the sudden the book ends. It ends seriously in the middle of a fight scene with a number of horrible things in the middle of happening. I though that maybe the audio book was broken into two parts and I missed downloading the other part. I went to audible.com and checked. Nope I had the whole book. I was convinced that I had lost part of the audio book somewhere, that's how open the ending was. I finally checked people's reviews on Amazon and found that many other people were also dismayed at the ending.
If you haven't read this book yet, I would strongly suggest you wait until the next book comes out and read the two books together. This really is almost only half a book!
Besides the ending, it was wonderful!
