Description
"Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn proved there was an appetite not only for epic fantasy but for the complexity that Williams brought to the genre." --Vulture

New York Times bestselling Tad Williams delivers a thrilling new tale set in his legendary world of Osten Ard, set 300 years before the events of The Dragonbone Chair, book one of the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn series.

A fearless bandit and his band of misfit rebels navigate a kingdom menaced by dark sorcery and war in this fast-moving epic fantasy by an author who inspired a generation of fantasy authors, among them George R. R. Martin, Brandon Sanderson, Patrick Rothfuss, and Christopher Paolini.

With the old King of Hernystir's health failing, warlords carve up the land and rival factions clash over the rightful heir. Into this chaos steps Flann, joined by allies both noble and common, to help the King's one legitimate heir claim his father's blessing and restore stability. But enemies, human and inhuman, stalk their every move, determined to end Flann's quest before it begins.

Packed with action, unforgettable characters, and the sweeping imagination that has made Tad Williams one of fantasy's most beloved voices, this is the high fantasy world of Osten Ard as you've never seen it before.

Praise for Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn and the world of Osten Ard:

"One of my favorite fantasy series." --George R. R. Martin
"Tad Williams is a master storyteller, and the Osten Ard books are his masterpiece." --Brandon Sanderson
"Groundbreaking." --Patrick Rothfuss
"One of the great fantasy epics of all time." --Christopher Paolini
