From Our Editors

When Guy Gavriel Kay's Summer Tree was first published, critics were quick to liken it to The Lord of the Rings. It was ripe with the same mystical elements and epic proportions as Tolkien's watermark. Then The Wandering Fire, the second instalment in the Finovar Tapestry trilogy, took things to the next level, bringing together warriors, wizards, spirits and other alternative beings to further the tale of five young adventurers on a quest through the mystical land. Everything came together perfectly for The Darkest Road, the series' absorbing finale. Now all three can be enjoyed together in The Finovar Tapestry Omnibus.

About the Author

Guy Gavriel Kay, fantasy writer, was born November 7, 1954 in Canada. He studied law at the University of Toronto. He became interested in fantasy fiction while working as an assistant to Christopher Tolkien. He assisted him with the editing of J. R. R. Tolkien's "The Silmarillion." His first fantasy novels were The Summer Tree, The Wandering Fire, and The Darkest Road. These three titles make up the trilogy called Fionavar Tapestry Trilogy. This trilogy has been translated into twelve languages. His works have earned him Canada?s equivalent of the Hugo in 1986 for The Wandering Fire and the Aurora Award for Tigana and The Wandering. Kay currently resides in Toronto, Canada.

Employee Review

FROM: The Best Book I Ever Read

With life-like characters, an epic tale that gets better by the page, written in a style that Tolkien would be proud of, how could this not be the best book ever made? Kay has a gift for dialogue and description which draws the reader so far into the tale that it will have you laughing out loud and crying in grief (a cliche, I know, but accurate). The story, which traces the struggles of five people through a land beset by evil, gives traditional fantasy themes a new twist, and should be the book against which all other novels of the genre are measured.
