Kingdoms Of The Wall

Plot

Product Description Poilar and his childhood friend Traiben traverse the mysterious Kingdoms and blasted landscapes, braving ghosts and monstrous apparitions to reach the summit of Kosa Saag and to discover the secret of the gods. Reprint. From Library Journal Poilar Crookleg's dream becomes reality when he is designated leader of a group of 40 young men and women chosen by the village of Jespodar to participate in the yearly pilgrimage to the top of the mammouth mountain known as "The Wall," a journey from which no sane person has heretofore returned. Veteran sf author Silverberg is a consummate raconteur with a flair for metaphor. Like the ocean in his Face of the Waters ( LJ 9/15/91), the mountain in his latest work represents both a physical and a spiritual obstacle for the human spirit. Fans of epic adventure will not be disappointed.Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.
