Is there even an Abhorsen series-centric community here at LJ? It seems like all the comms are for Garth Nix books in general, and it's like that at FF.net, too.

Ancelstierre seemed a little steampunk-ish to me, for some reason. I'm not sure how, but that was definitely the image that got stuck in my head. I mean, it's an awesome image and I wish I could do something with that, but that's probably not what Nix was going for. I loved how juxtaposed Ancelstierre and the Old Kingdom are, especially at the Wall where everything merges to try to get the best of both worlds in order to survive.
People write Nick like he's incompetent? Wha? Did they not notice how resourceful he was when trying to do everything in his power to fight off Orannis's influence or when Nick actually held him off long enough to try to implement his own plan to stop the hemispheres from merging? That just boggles my mind.
