A previously unpublished episode from THE ILLEARTH WAR

Having found the Illearth Stone, Lord Foul intends to wield its evil power over the Giants of Seareach.

But a force, led by Korik Bloodguard together with the Lords Shetra and Hyrim, undertake a perilous mission – to try and warn the Giants of their horrible fate . . .

But they must travel across hostile land and through the menacing Grimmerdhore Forest. They must save themselves from the evil flames of the Gilden-Fire which threaten to engulf them.

And Bloodguard must escape the hungry wolves and the ur-viles so that he can complete his mission and remain loyal to his vow.

Any reader of the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant will welcome this new story.
