A haunting entry in the World Fantasy Award-winning Mythago Cycle
In "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"
