The first great fantasy novel ever written. William Morris has been described as "obviously a Nineteenth Century Tolkien..." but he has a quality that is equally obviously and uniquely his own. In Limpid, singing prose, daintily archaic, he tells a fabulous story of the travels of a down-to-earth hero in an enchanted time: of a land beyond reality but of humans governed by very real laws. Every picture is delicately precise; every view dewy fresh. The world of William Morris is truly a jeweled world. Cover art by Gervasio Gallardo.
