Book Description
Magical tracks of silver and gold connect our world to others. But now an evil wind blows among them all—bringing with it the scent of war... Lugh Samildinach, High King of Tir-Nan-Og, has been deposed and imprisoned, and the throne of Faerie is under siege. Those who would seize its power bear little love for humankind, and will risk everything to defend their weakening borders from the unwitting invasion of mortal land developers—even if it means drowning the entire state of Georgia. David Sullivan, human liason between mortal and Faerie, must summon his friends to aid both races. Armed with weapons of iron and magic, they must rescue the captured Faerie King and forestall the despoilers of David's beloved homeland. But even as the fate of thousands hangs in the balance, a very personal tragedy raises the stakes for David alone...who has discovered just what he stands to lose if he should fail.

The A to Z of Fantasy Literature
Author: Brian Stableford
Publisher: Scarecrow Press
ISBN: 0810863456
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
Once upon a time all literature was fantasy, set in a mythical past when magic existed, animals talked, and the gods took an active hand in earthly affairs. As the mythical past was displaced in Western estimation by the historical past and novelists became increasingly preoccupied with the present, fantasy was temporarily marginalized until the late 20th century, when it enjoyed a spectacular resurgence in every stratum of the literary marketplace. Stableford provides an invaluable guide to this sequence of events and to the current state of the field. The chronology tracks the evolution of fantasy from the origins of literature to the 21st century. The introduction explains the nature of the impulses creating and shaping fantasy literature, the problems of its definition and the reasons for its changing historical fortunes. The dictionary includes cross-referenced entries on more than 700 authors, ranging across the entire historical spectrum, while more than 200 other entries describe the fantasy subgenres, key images in fantasy literature, technical terms used in fantasy criticism, and the intimately convoluted relationship between literary fantasies, scholarly fantasies, and lifestyle fantasies. The book concludes with an extensive bibliography that ranges from general textbooks and specialized accounts of the history and scholarship of fantasy literature, through bibliographies and accounts of the fantasy literature of different nations, to individual author studies and useful websites.
