The latest volume in the bestselling fantasy saga that began with Lord Valentine's Castle: the eagerly awaited new novel in the Majipoor sequence, one of the most famous and fully realized worlds of modern fantasy. A sequel to THE SORCERERS OF MAJIPOOR, this sumptuous fantasy is set in a world with four moons in the sky, a Desert of Stolen Dreams, a deadly Labyrinth which is the Register of Souls, rootless trees, flesh-eating flowers...Prestimion has won his title in a lengthy civil war. Now Coronal of Majipoor, Prestimion's first mistake is to use a sorcerer's device to obliterate the war universally from memory. Majipoor must be seen as the perfect world. The result is mass psychosis. Thanks to his mother's worldwide control of minds from the Isle of Sleep and the allegiance of clever Prince Dekkeret, Prestimion will defeat his resurgent enemy Sambail and cure his people...but only just.

Industry Reviews

Addition to Silverberg's fantasy series set on the giant planet Majipoor, this a direct sequel to Sorcerers of Majipoor (1997). Prestimion, the new Coronal, has defeated the usurper Korsibar in a war so dreadful that he ordered his sorcerers to invoke the Spell of Oblivion; now only Prestimion and his two companions in arms, Septach Melayn and Gialaurys, remember that the war ever happened. But things are more complicated than that. How to explain the deaths and destruction, when nobody recalls what happened? How can Prestimion condemn and justly execute his kinsman, the rebel Dantirya Sambail - he fought with and nearly killed Prestimion - when neither Sambail nor anyone else remembers what crimes he committed? More problematic yet, how can Prestimion grapple with the war's most terrible legacy, an epidemic of violent madness that threatens to engulf the world? If you've ever wondered where lingering fantasies go when all their vitality's trickled away, look no further. (Kirkus Reviews)
