Any reader familiar with the Land, Stephen R. Donaldson’s setting for The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, will be pleased to learn of this new story: a previously untold episode of The Illearth War.

This is the tale of Korik Bloodguard, the Lords Shetra and Hyrim, and their company, on their mission to Seareach. Many dangers and many hard decisions await them on their journey, as they travel through Grimmerdhore Forest and encounter ur-viles, a pack of wolves, and Gilden-Fire.

In this story we gain more background and understanding into the lives and motivations of the dwellers of the Land, as well as the history of the Bloodguard – of great interest to anyone who enjoyed the Thomas Convenant novels.
