About this eBook
The bestselling fantasy series from one of the biggest names in the genre comes to an unforgettable conclusion. This is the final volume of the epic Chronicles of Thomas Covenant - one of the keynote works of modern fantasy.
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.

The final triumphs feel a little generic and easy, with some moments not fully explained, but this might be due to the shattered manner in which I read the final four books. A re-reading through all might make a smoother experience. Still fantastic books, despite the heavier American cultural references.

I've always loved the Thomas Convant novels and consider the second series one of the best series ever written, while these last books have dragged along in places, The Last Dark really ended the whole series well. Though not without a few flaws and a few unanswered questions, I still really enjoyed the book and will be a little saddened that we'll be leaving the 'Land'

A grand way to complete the paradox of Lord Foul.
