About this product

Product Information

A masterful epic of magic, politics, war, and the power of love and hate--from the renowned author of The Fionavar Tapestry and Children of Earth and Sky . Tigana is the magical story of a beleaguered land struggling to be free. It is the tale of a people so cursed by the black sorcery of a cruel despotic king that even the name of their once-beautiful homeland cannot be spoken or remembered... But years after the devastation, a handful of courageous men and women embark upon a dangerous crusade to overthrow their conquerors and bring back to the dark world the brilliance of a long-lost name...Tigana. Against the magnificently rendered background of a world both sensuous and barbaric, this sweeping epic of a passionate people pursuing their dream is breathtaking in its vision, changing forever the boundaries of fantasy fiction.

  • One of the greatest books ever written.

    It's funny. It's been at least ten years since I last read this book. I've read hundreds, if not thousands, between now and then, and this is the one I always go back to as the now-cliched "Greatest book I've ever read." But in this case, it's true. This is a fantasy novel set in a different world with two moons, but is modeled after Italy. It's a story about taking back something that has been taken from you, and the blurring the line between honor and revenge, hate and justice. It's pretty rare a fantasy novel can elicit such a powerful emotional reaction. This is one that did.

  • One of his best books

    Great Book
