Fatal Revenant begins where The Runes of the Earfth ended: Linden Avery watches from a balcony while Thomas Covenant and her adopted son Jeremiah ride desperately toward Revelstone. But their reunion has vast consequences which she could not have foreseen.

Transported deep into the Land's past, she is forced to confront mysterious strangers, legendary heroes and ancient evils, and to stand alone against the malevolence of the Despiser's minions. Abandoned in Garroting Deep, the most bloodthirsty of the Land's long-dead forests, she determines to reshape reality in an attempt to end the Despiser's evil and her son's suffering. However, her purpose requires her to find Loric's krill, a weapon abandoned among the Hills of Andelain millennia ago.

Attacked by enemies old and new, and harried by strange beings with ambiguous agendas, she strives toward Andelain. But the ravenous skurj are rising…

He is also the author of the fantasy duology Mordant's Need, the SF epic quintet The Gap, and a number of mysteries.

Industry Reviews

"Donaldson's Land is still a beautiful and marvelously complex place full of strange peoples. It really does compare, as indeed it's supposed to, with Tolkien's Middle Earth. There are many vivid moments to savour." -- Gideon Kibblewhite DEATHRAY "Fatal Revenant is eventful and original." -- Barabara Davies STARBURST "This is Donaldson back to his scintillating best. A journey well worth taking." WATERSTONES.COM "Fatal Revenant is for aficionados who crave high fantasy tales with depth and substance." PAT's FANTASY HOTLIST "There simply are not enough stars to award this book. It is not a lightweight, fluff piece, but an intense, mentally stimulating, and utterly satisfying read. Questions that have abided since Lord Foul's Bane are clarified, characters develop, and old themes echo from the prior series. It breaks my heart to finish a story like this." THE ETERNAL NIGHT
