The Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Book 3

By: Stephen R. Donaldson

Narrated by: Scott Brick

“…I want you to go back to the Land. To Revelstone. And stop the Clave. Put out the Sunbane. If you do that, the Sunbane’ll slow down. Maybe it’ll even recede. That’ll give us time to look for a better answer.”

Thomas Covenant was shocked by Linden Avery’s demand; but he realized that, despite their awful failure on The Isle of The One Tree, there was no alternative but to return and fight. Mhoram had warned him: “…In the end, you must return to the Land.” After a long and arduous journey overland, the company reaches Revelstone. Following a fiery showdown with Gibbon Raver, Covenant discovers that he can come to terms with—and control—his awesome power. As he readies himself for the final showdown with Lord Foul, the Despiser, Thomas Covenant knows he has the answer at last.

A very deep a moving journey unique in all of fantasy

A magical work of mixing fiction and language into a poetic prose saga that inspires and moves the reader or listener. Having read the series several times now I can say that every time I return to it and to The Land that Stephen R. Donaldson has created I pick up on something new about both the story and it’s players as well as about myself.

Highly recommended and supremely narrated on audio book by Scott Brick as well, Turns out that The Saga of Liden Avery and Thomas Covenant fits that medium very well indeed if you are so inclined.

Enjoy.

Thesaurus

Read it as a young adult 20+ years ago. Looked forward to this series. Completely forgot that this is one author where you need a thesaurus or dictionary if you want to understand all of the words 🤓. Loved it the first time and even more the second time. Wraps up really quick in the end.

Rich storytelling

Fantastic series. Anyone who wants to listen to a well written fantasy series, this is right up your alley.

Wonderful conclusion to the second trilogy!
