Overview
The Keys to the Kingdom is Garth Nix's beloved seven-book fantasy sequence, collected here in one complete paperback set. Following ordinary schoolboy Arthur Penhaligon as he is thrust into the role of Rightful Heir to a mysterious, reality-spanning House, the series blends inventive world-building, mythology and page-turning adventure. Perfect for middle-grade and young teen readers who love fantasy quests, this set brings all seven instalments together for a satisfying, uninterrupted reading journey from start to finish.
About the Books
Arthur Penhaligon is an ordinary boy with severe asthma until a near-fatal attack brings two extraordinary guardians and a key shaped like a clock's minute hand into his life. In Mister Monday, Arthur is drawn into the House, an impossible building outside time where each of seven Trustees guards a Key and a piece of a shattered Will. Grim Tuesday sends Arthur after the Second Key through a sunship heist and a strange work camp, while Drowned Wednesday pulls him into a perilous sea voyage. Sir Thursday introduces his friend Leaf as an essential ally, and Lady Friday raises the stakes as the New Nithling army overruns the Great Maze and Arthur's friends are captured. By Superior Saturday, Arthur has claimed five of the seven Keys, setting up the tense endgame, before Lord Sunday brings the saga to a dramatic conclusion as the House itself begins to collapse. Across all seven books, Nix weaves mythology, clockwork architecture and moral complexity into a series that rewards close attention while delivering fast-paced storytelling.
