{{tropework}}
A young-adult [[High Fantasy]] novel by [[Garth Nix]], which should tell you [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel|a few]] [[Troperiffic|things]] all by itself.

* [[Action Survivor]]: Paul really wants nothing to do with all of this excitement and adventure.
* [[Battle in Thethe Center of Thethe Mind]]
* [[The Beast Master]]: Though Leasel the hare is not exactly a great fighter, other Friends of Beasts have more [[Badass]] companions like very large dogs, wedge-tailed eagles, and boars.
* [[Black Eyes of Evil]]: The Ragwitch.
Line 17 ⟶ 16:
* [[Creepy Doll]]
* [[The Dragon]]: Oroch
* [[Dying Asas Yourself]]: {{spoiler|The Ragwitch turns back into Anhwyvar for a second when She dies, [[Go Out with a Smile|smiles]], then disintegrates.}}
* [[Elemental Powers]]: The gifts from, well, the Elementals.
* [[Enemy Within]]: Inverted. {{spoiler|The Ragwitch's original personality is a very nice person who's locked up in a corner of Her memories and does not appreciate what She's doing.}}
Line 25 ⟶ 24:
* [[Fate Worse Than Death]]: Being imprisoned in the Ragwitch's mind. {{spoiler|Mirran, after being locked in there for hundreds of years, basically gets warped into a monster before Julia gets him back to normal.}}
* [[Fighting From the Inside]]: Pretty much all of Julia's plotline consists of this in some form or another.
* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: The [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|appropriately-named]] Friends of Beasts.
* [[Gaia's Vengeance]]: What kicked the North Queen out before she became the Ragwitch.
* [[God Save Us From the Queen]]: She's an [[Evil Overlord]] [[Omnicidal Maniac]].
Line 35 ⟶ 34:
* [[Painting the Fourth Wall]]: Pronouns used to describe the Ragwitch are always capitalized. Apparently She is so scary that even the narration feels the need to give Her Her due respect.
* [[Plucky Comic Relief]]: Quigin, who constantly gets distracted trying to talk to animals.
* [[Sealed Evil in Aa Can]]: Oddly enough, our world is the can; while the North Queen was too powerful for them to destroy, she could be weakened and locked in another universe where she wouldn't be able to cause so much trouble.
* [[Speaks Fluent Animal]]: Basically the job description of a Friend of Beasts.
* [[Trapped in Another World]]
