About this Item

� 1977: 2nd in the 'First Chronicles Of Thomas Covenant' series of books. 7th printing of 1978 edition:- Review(s): "Comparable to Tolkien at his best. A remarkable achievement which will certainly find a place on the small list of true classics. Donaldson has a vivid and unrestrained imagination. He writes well and wields symbols powerfully" - Washington Post / "An irresistible epic. Imagination, heroism and excitement, made all the more real by Donaldson's deft handling of the rich history of the Land" - Chicago Daily News / "I am singularly impressed. The writing has a sweep of grandeur, a depth that is seldom seen" - Clifford D Simak:- (original cost �1.50).

About this title

Synopsis

Returning to the Land, after forty years of its time, Thomas Convenant finds the powers of evil, under Lord Foul the Despiser, fully unleashed and assumes the responsibility of finding a way to defeat Lord Foul.

From the Publisher

These books have never received the recognition they deserve. It's one of the most powerful and complex fantasy trilogies since Lord of the Rings, but Donaldson is not just another Tolkien wanabee. Each character-driven book introduces unexpected plots, sub-plots, and a host of magical beings so believably rendered you'd believe you might bump into them on your way to the bookstore.
--Alex Klapwald, Director of Production
