Lirael has never felt like a true daughter of the Clayr. Now, two years past the time when she should have received the Sight that is the Clayr's birthright, she feels alone, abandoned, unsure of who she is. Nevertheless, the fate of the Old Kingdom lies in her hands. With only her faithful companion, the Disreputable Dog, Lirael must undertake a desperate mission under the growing shadow of an ancient evil. In this sequel to Sabriel, winner of the Aurealis Award for Excellence in Australian Science Fiction, New York Times best-selling author Garth Nix weaves a spellbinding tale of discovery, destiny, and danger.

2018 was at least the second, if not the third read-through of this book, and I found it to be a bit slow but more detailed than Sabriel.
I may have a better opinion after the third book, but with this reading and my memory of #3, it almost feels like Lirael and Abhorsen were a duet and Sabriel was extra backstory that was made into a book and called #1 because of chronology. There has been more world-explaining in this book than in #1, in my opinion.
