The White Isle

by Darrell Schweitzer

Published 1 December 1989
  • Darrell Schweitzer's first novel is a powerful tale of Prince Evnos of
    Iankoros, who seeks to reclaim his bride from the God of Death. Rich with
    strange sorceries, grim mythologies, and hostile gods, this is a tale of heroism
    and horror, seeming triumph and subsequent tragedy, and strange turns of fate
    which none of the characters could possible foresee. It is a modern classic
    reminiscent of E.R. Eddison, Clark Ashton Smith and Lord Dunsany... and yet
    uniquely the author's own.
