Old Kingdom (book series)
The Old Kingdom, or Abhorsen in North America, is a fantasy fiction series by Australian author Garth Nix. It originated in 1995 with the novel Sabriel and has continued in novels Lirael (2001) and Abhorsen (2003), novella The Creature in the Case (2005), and other short fiction. In Australia the omnibus edition comprising three novels and one novella was titled The Old Kingdom Chronicles (2009, Allen & Unwin (Australia)). U.S. omnibus editions have been titled The Abhorsen Trilogy (2003) and The Abhorsen Chronicles (2009). ISFDB catalogues the entire continuing series as "The Old Kingdom / Abhorsen". The series continued with the prequel novel Clariel (2014).
Nix has announced another Old Kingdom book, a "sequel of sorts to Abhorsen" (below).
Series
Sabriel
Protagonist Sabriel is in her final few days at her school in Ancelstierre (an alternate history of 1910s England), when she is visited by a spirit summoned by her father (the Abhorsen), who is trapped in Death, and departs to rescue him. Accompanied by her father's assistant Mogget, she discovers Touchstone; and with him, continues to Belisaere (the capital of the Old Kingdom). In a sacred site under the city, Sabriel briefly frees her father, who diverts the antagonist Kerrigor while the others escape.

by: Drew SeeleyFollow me into my world
Let your worries fade with every
step you take
Baby whatcha' waiting for
Let the tango take control
Feel the music inside your soul (Oh)
My hand is out, just grab a hold
Watch time fade away
My arms will keep you safe
It's just you and me
Dancing in this dream
Whatever you do, don't wake me up
The feeling's real won't let it
stop, no
CHORUS
Don't be afraid, take my hand
Forget the world
Will you dance, dance with me
Pudemos bailar eternamente
Trust in me, take a chance
Feel the Tango
When you dance, dance with me
Podemos bailar eternamente
Now I have you next to me
Everything is how it should be
Baby, don't fight the feeling
We're floating on the clouds
If I could, I'd never come back down
Baby just keep on groovin'
As time fades away
My arms will keep you safe
It's just you and me
Dancing in this dream
WHatever you do, don't wake me up
The feeling's real, won't let it
stop, no
CHORUS
Don't be afraid, take my hand
Forget the world
Will you dance, dance with me
Podemos bailar eternamente
Trust in me, take a chance
Feel the Tango
When you dance, dance with me
Podemos bailar eternamente
Dance with me
(I'm dancing with you)
For this moment in time
(My dreams have come true)
My darling just dance with me
If only one night
CHORUS
Don't be afraid, take my hand
Forget the world
Will you dance, dance with me
Podemos bailar eternamente
Trust in me, take a chance
Feel the Tango
When you dance, dance with me
