Desperate for help to find her adopted son, Jeremiah, Linden Avery
has resurrected Thomas Covenant in a cataclysmic exertion of
Earthpower and wild magic. But the consequences of her efforts are
more terrible than she could have imagined. Sorcery on that scale
has awakened the Worm of the World's End: the ultimate end of all
Time, and therefore of all life, has been set in motion. And on a
more personal level, the results are no less extreme. The stress of
reincarnation so many centuries after his death has fractured
Covenant's mind. He cannot tell Linden where to find her son. And
his leprosy has renewed its grip on him, inexorably killing his
nerves. The Ranyhyn had tried to warn her. Now, plunged to depths
of desperation and despair for which she is entirely unprepared,
Linden seeks radical responses to the dilemmas she has created.
Searching for Jeremiah, and accompanied only by a few friends and
allies - some of them unwilling - she takes chances that threaten
her sanity, forcing her to confront the Land's most fearsome
secrets. Dreadful futures hinge on all of her choices, and she and
her companions are driven beyond the limits of their endurance. Yet
she still walks paths laid out for her by the Despiser, and his
forces are ready ...
