Rating: - Not up to the standard of the other Keys to The Kingdom books
I hate to give bad reviews, but my son and I were pretty disappointed with Superior Saturday. I've read all the series to him as bedtime reading, and we enjoyed them all so far. I don't know what happened with this one. The plot never really took off - are we supposed to get excited about tightening screws in a giant office building? Just when we thought something interesting might be about to happen, the book ended. I guess people who've come this far with the series will read it, and I will still ... Read More

Having read and loved Garth Nix's OLD KINGDOM books (SABRIEL, LIRAEL, and ABHORSEN) as well as his SEVENTH TOWER series, I had pretty high expectations when I started in on SUPERIOR SATURDAY. I wasn't
disappointed. The action moves along quickly, with new and original presentations of magic at every turn, and major and minor characters worth cheering for (or, in the case of the antagonists, against).

The sixth book in Nix's KEYS TO THE KINGDOM series picks up right where the fifth ... Read More

And so we come to Superior Saturday, the 6th book in Garth Nix's fantastic Keys To The Kingdom series.

Never more so than Superior Saturday which really ups the stakes. In an interesting cut back to ... Read More

Arthur Penhaligan's week is almost over, but unfortunately it's not getting any better. Not for him, and not for the House.

In fact, just about everything is tumbling down in the penultimate book of Garth Nix's Keys to the Kingdom series, "Superior Saturday," in which Arthur finally encounters the malevolent sorceress who's been messing things up throughout the series. It's a suitably chaotic and haunting story, and Arthur's internal struggles and new discoveries are a pretty fascinating read ... Read More

Rating: - Superior Garth Nix!
In the sixth instalment of the Keys to the Kingdom series, Arthur is on a journey to gain the sixth key from Saturday, the oldest denizen in the House.

After disappointment in the Thursday and Friday novels, I was wondering if Nix had somewhat gone into too deep with his attention to detail rather than action and suspense but Saturday is right back on track with intensity, action and a mouth watering prospect for Sunday that I believe this latest addition is right behind Monday in terms of the ...
