Into Battle

Garth Nix's 'Into Battle' plunges young readers into a high-stakes fantasy world where war is on the horizon. The story follows two main protagonists, Tal of the Underfolk rebels and Milla of the Icecarls, as they navigate a world in peril. A mysterious 'Veil' is vulnerable, and a powerful, sinister force threatens to bring about ultimate destruction. This chapter book, part of 'The Seventh Tower' series, explores themes of freedom, bravery, and the fight against overwhelming evil, making it an engaging read for children aged 4-11 who enjoy epic adventures and complex fantasy worlds. Parents should be aware of the prominent themes of war and danger, though handled appropriately for the age group.
