Picking up right where Lirael left off, Lirael and Sameth desperately attempt to foil the plans of the necromancer Hedge. Lots of action, but basically it's just one step forward two steps back for the whole book. The two manage to put aside their growing despair and keep plugging on, hoping that the next time they'll be successful. Sameth in particular grows a lot during the course of the book. I would have liked to see more of Sabriel and Touchstone - they had no role here other than to literally fly in at the last moment and help save the day. But all in all, a satisfactory conclusion to the trilogy.
