A haunting entry in the World Fantasy Award-winning Mythago CycleIn
Mythago Wood, Robert Holdstock gave us an intricate world spun from
the stories of Irish and English mythology, a great forest steeped in
mystery and legend, whose heart contains secrets that will change all
who behold them.Young Tallis is one such seeker. When she was just an
infant, she lost her brother Harry to Ryhope Wood. Her adolescent
fancies now cause her to suspect that he is still alive---and in
grave danger. Tallis follows Harry into the primal Otherworld armed
only with magic, masks, and clues left by her grandfather. Eventually
the primitive forest gives way to Lavondyss itself, a fascinating and
terrible realm where she is forced to confront the mythagos, physical
manifestations of the legends of humanity's collective
unconscious.Join Tallis on her quest into the ultimate unknown, and
be invited into one of the finest and most compelling mythologies you
will ever encounter. "A stunningly good book . .. conveys the
haunting power of old heroes and lost gods."--Locus"Magical . .. It
is rare to find a sequel which measures up to its original; but
Lavondyss surpasses it."--Times Literary Supplement
