|---|
"Thomas Covenant returns to the other-world once again, to help them fight against the armies of Lord Foul that are ravaging the Land. Only this time, there is no healing for his leperousy. This time, there is no denying the truth of this strange world where magic works. Covenant must set out to face his Enemy, Lord Foul, once and for all. A Giant, a Bloodguard, and a madwoman he had wronged go with him, to help him seek out Lord Foul in Foul's Creche and defeat him before his victory over the Land is complete."
Pamela Piarowski, Resident Scholar
