The Runes Of The Earth: The Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant

Thomas Covenant is mysteriously struck down by a disease believed eradicated; abandoned by his wife and young son, he becomes a pariah. Alone, despairing, Covenant falls - and is drawn into a mysterious new world where gentle people work magic and the earth itself brings healing. He is welcomed as the reincarnation of a legendary saviour, but Covenant is convinced he is having delusions. At the end of the sixth book, as Covenant battles to save the world, he is killed - in both worlds - as Dr Linden Avery, his horrified companion looks on. Now it is ten years later and Linden Avery thought she would never see the Land, or Covenant, her beloved again. But Lord Foul has stolen her adopted son and is unmaking the very laws of nature. And though she believes Covenant dead, he keeps sending Linden messages. The Land is in turmoil and Lord Foul has plans for them all.
