Young Tallis is one such seeker. When she was just an infant, she lost her brother Harry to Ryhope Wood. Her adolescent fancies now cause her to suspect that he is still alive---and in grave danger. Tallis follows Harry into the primal Otherworld armed only with magic, masks, and clues left by her grandfather. Eventually the primitive forest gives way to Lavondyss itself, a fascinating and terrible realm where she is forced to confront the mythagos, physical manifestations of the legends of humanity's collective unconscious. Join Tallis on her quest into the ultimate unknown, and be invited into one of the finest and most compelling mythologies you will ever encounter. "A stunningly good book . . . conveys the haunting power of old heroes and lost gods."--Locus" Magical . . . It is rare to find a sequel which measures up to its original; but Lavondyss surpasses it."--Times Literary Supplement "A world inaccessible, a realm indescribable. A site of wonder and horror, of death and rebirth, peopled with fantastic beings born of the collective human unconscious. And now young Tallis Keeton has been drawn into the mysterious heartwood - crossing the boundaries of perception into the forbidden places of the mythic past - in search of her lost brother ... and the deark secrets of her terrible heritage."--T.p.
