Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant

Linden Avery, who loved Thomas Covenant when they traveled together to the Land ten years ago, returns to this magical realm in search of her son, Jeremiah. There, not only does she find her son has been healed of the tragic mental condition that kept him mute and unresponsive for years, but she also finds Thomas Covenant himself, impossibly alive and frighteningly intent on carrying out a dark and dangerous plan. Yet when Linden hears Covenant's voice in her dreams, crying "Linden, find me," she's forced to consider whether the man she's traveling with is the same Thomas Covenant she loved and adored, or whether he's been twisted into something dark and far more sinister. "Thought-provoking…Complicated and original."

Award-winning author Stephen R. Donaldson's Thomas Covenant books have sold more than 10 million copies. In the third volume of this trilogy, Linden Avery confronts the consequences of using magical power sufficient to wake the Worm, which is capable of destroying the Land. And although the only hope may rest with Linden's son, the boy could also bring disaster upon everyone.

Compelled step by step to actions whose consequences they could neither see nor prevent, Thomas Covenant and Linden Avery have fought for what they love in the magical reality known only as 'the Land.' Now they face their final crisis. Reunited after their separate struggles, they discover in each other their true power - and yet they cannot imagine how to stop the Worm of the World's End from unmaking Time. Nevertheless they must resist the ruin of all things, giving their last strength in the service of the world's continuance.
