Part one of the epic conclusion to Tad Williams' classic fantasy series MEMORY, SORROW AND THORN, set in the fantasy world of Osten Ard.

MEMORY, SORROW AND THORN
An epic fantasy saga of magic, empire and adventure

BOOK THREE: TO GREEN ANGEL TOWER: SIEGE

While King Elias is drawn ever deeper into the dark sorceries of the Storm King, Simon Snowlock and his allies gather at the Stone of Farewell. The badly depleted League of the Scroll searches for age-old knowledge with which to aid Josua's much-outnumbered army.

Across the face of Osten Ard, lines are being drawn as the final battle approaches, and the struggle between Light and Dark reaches a climax.

Praise for Tad Williams:

In order for the Storm King can cement his power over Osten Ard, he must find and defeat the rebel forces massing against him. But the rebels, led by the exiled Prince Josua, have rallied at the Stone of Farewell and are ready to fight the Storm King with every power they can muster. The key to their victory lies in finding the third sword of legend, Memory - but the sword has been lost for ages.

Lost, that is, until Simon Snowlock realises that he knows exactly where the sword is and how to recover it. The only problem: an undead army, bolstered by powerful magic, lies between him and his destination. It will take every ounce of Simon's courage and intelligence to journey to and then recover the great sword Memory and bring peace to Osten Ard.

If Simon's quest is to have any hope, Josua must move against the Storm King himself - a journey that will take him across endless seas, through ancient forests and into the stronghold of the Storm King himself.

This is the first half of the the epic final volume in Tad Williams' breathtaking, beloved series Memory, Sorrow and Thorn.
