Reave The Just And Other Tales eBook

Stephen R. Donaldson''s unique talents have placed his work alongside that of J.R.R. Tolkien and established him as a writer with the rare ability to expand readers'' imaginations. Now he presents a magnificent new collection of eight stories and novellas--three of which have never before been published.

This outstanding volume commences with the fablelike title story, "Reave the Just," which highlights one of Donaldson''s favorite themes: the individual''s power to overcome adversity. This collection also introduces the morbid, soul-taking hero of "Penance," the mysterious beggar woman in the dark fairy tale "The Woman Who Loved Pigs," and the pampered antihero forced to make a choice between virtue and vice in "The Djinn Who Watches Over the Accursed."

Boasting exotic settings and suspense fueled by sudden plot twists, Reave the Just and Other Tales is a testament to Stephen R. Donaldson''s talent to spin unforgettably spellbinding stories, and the astonishing scope of his mastery of magic and myth.
