Australian fantasy author Garth Nix (well known for his novels Sabriel and Shade\'s Children, both ALA list picks) has joined with Lucasfilm to launch a six-book fantasy series about Tal\'s world, of which The Fall is the first installment. Packed with excitement and wonderfully weird creatures like the living sea of Selski and the hungry, one-horned Merwin, Nix\'s latest tale will enchant readers. Containing elements of The Golden Compass and the Harry Potter books, The Seventh Tower is an epic fantasy not to be missed. (Ages 11 to 14) --Jennifer Hubert
