Description

Secondd-hand copy of The Lightstone by David Zindell

Second-hand quirks:

• Slight wear to the botom edges of the spine and covers
• Some folded top corners
• Otherwise in very good condition’

Blurb reads:

On the island continent of Ea it is late in the Age of the Dragon. It is a dark time of chaos, war, and the dashed dreams of long-lost ages. Once again Morjin, the fallen angel, is seeking the Lightstone. With it he will eventually find a way to free the Lord of Lies, the dark arch-angel imprisoned for a million years.

But strangely, it is also a time of light as the earth and sun once again enter the Golden Band. A champion has been born who will seek the Lightstone so that the prophecy of a new and glorious age can be fulfilled. His name is Valashu Elahad, the seventh son of the King of Mesh. Blessed (or cursed?) with an empathy for all living things, he will lead his people into the lands of Morjin, into the heart of darkness, wielding a magical sword called Alkaladur.
