The Tale of Gaharen And The Wolf King of Vill-Ungrol'e
Follow along with Trinity College translator, Langston O'Connor, and editor, Stefan May, as they introduce the world to the enigmatic and sunken microcontinent of the Kerguelen Plateau, located south-west of Australia. This hidden land reveals the deep world known as Mindruhem, where an extraordinary narrative unfolds between a young giant named Bo-a'mesh and a young human wayfarer, Terro-Lorn. Their paths cross in this ancient, submerged world, leading to an adventure that bridges the gap between mythical past and vivid imagination. Tirelessly transcribed from the mysterious antediluvian Book of Helmesh, "The Tale of Gaharen And The Wolf King of Vill-Ungrol'e" transports the reader to a Pre-Adamic world teeming with larger-than-life giants, early humans, formidable Dire Wolves, and the mystical art of alchemy. This world is steeped in a rich, forgotten lore where ancient evils lurk, threatening to bring about the destruction of everything that exists. This novel-in-verse endeavors to meld the grandeur of ancient epics from antiquity with the dynamic ethos of contemporary high fantasy. Through an unconventional literary anastylosis, it promises to elevate the standards of traditional speculative fiction. Complete with a meticulously crafted Preface and detailed Appendixes, this work stands unparalleled in the realm of modern fantasy literature. It offers a unique reading experience that defies comparison, inviting readers to immerse themselves in a tale that blends the timeless qualities of classical storytelling with the imaginative breadth of contemporary fantasy.
