Lyonesse: Suldrun's Garden eBooks

One of the crowning achievements of science fiction grandmaster Jack Vance, LYONESSE: SULDRUN'S GARDEN follows the exploits of rival kings and wizards on the Elder Isles, a country that sunk beneath the Atlantic shortly before Arthur and his knights made their fame. This eBook was assembled from the definitive Vance Integral Edition text, which was re-edited from its original publication under the supervision of Mr. Vance himself. This is the first book in the LYONESSE series, and is followed by THE GREEN PEARL and the World Fantasy Award-winning MADOUC.

A monument of fantastic literature to stand beside such classics as DUNE and THE LORD OF THE RINGS, LYONESSE evokes the Elder Isles, a land of pre-Arthurian myth now lost beneath the Atlantic, where powerful sorcerers, aloof faeries, stalwart champions, and nobles eccentric, magnanimous, and cruel pursue intrigue among their separate worlds. In this first book of the trilogy, SULDRUN'S GARDEN, Prince Aillas of Troicinet is betrayed on his first diplomatic voyage and cast into the sea. Before he redeems his birthright, he must pass the breadth of Hybras Isle as prisoner, vagabond, and slave, an acquaintance of faeries, wizards, and errant knights, and lover to a sad and beautiful girl whose fate sets his bitter rivalry with the tyrant Casmir, King of Lyonesse.
