About this product

Product Information

New York Times bestselling author Stephen R. Donaldson presents the first novel of the four-volume finale to the series that's become a modern fantasy classic: The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant. Thomas Covenant lost everything. Abandoned by his wife and child, sick and alone, he was transported while unconscious to a magical, dreamlike world called the Land. Convinced it was all a delusion, Covenant was christened The Unbeliever by the Land's inhabitants--but gave his life to save this new-found world he came to regard as precious. Ten years after Covenant's death, Linden Avery still mourns for her beloved companion. But a violent confrontation with Covenant's son, who is doing the evil Lord Foul's bidding, forces her into the Land, where a dark malevolence is about to unmake the laws of nature--and of life and death itself. It is here that she comes upon Esmer, son of the Dancers of the Sea, a creature of strange powers who draws Linden backwards through time to witness Thomas Covenant's return to life, and to reinvent the mysterious, dangerous, and violent history of the Land.

Reviews
Praise for The Runes of the Earth "A reawakening of a classic fantasy saga."-- Library Journal "Startlingly original antiheroic fantasy resonating with echoes of both Tolkien and Philip K. Dick."-- Publishers Weekly "An epic with page-turning intrigue."-- Detroit Free Press "Impressive...filled with splendid inventions."-- Booklist "The most important and original work of epic fantasy after Tolkien...Rich in paradox, metaphor, and symbolism, Donaldson continues his explorations into the psyches of his characters, as well as themes of estrangement, despair, guilt and responsibility. Intricately plotted...Donaldson's writing remains one of the most original and intellectually challenging works to have graced contemporary epic fantasy."--SF Site

  • The Final Chronicles of Thomas Covenant (Book 1)

    Book one in "The FInal Chronicles of Thomas Covenant" After nearly 10 years of living with the conclusion of "White Gold Wielder" Linden Avery is thrust back into the Land after Covenant's son Roger turns up to claim his birthright and his mother who has been in Avery's care. In this third part to this series and what will prove to be the final three books Donaldson once again proves that he can grab a reader and entertain him. This book is book one in this series, it is followed by Fatal Revenant, and Book three will be out in October of 2010 and will be titled "Against All Things Ending" This is a wonderful series and readers are encouraged to start from the beginning with Lord Foul's Bane. It makes a lot more sense if you know what all the characters have done in the ...

  • Linden Avery, the Chosen

    I bought this book because I ADORED the previous two trilogies which I read three times!) I felt that the first half of the book was not as good as the others. I was bored and felt that the story missed the "meat" of the other books. AND THEN EVERYTHING CHANGED!!!! Once I got through the first half, I couldn't put the book down. So, if you want to return to the Land once again and find this book a but sluggish, I urge you to keep going. The second half of the book is awesome! Enjoy your return to the Land.
