WHITE GOLD WELDER BY STEPHEN R. DONALDSON 1983 SIGNED FIRST EDITION HARDBACK White Gold Wielder is a fantasy novel by American writer Stephen R. Donaldson , the final book of the second trilogy of The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant series. Plot summary Leaving the sunken island of the One Tree, the giant ship Starfare's Gem sets course to return to the Land. In a dangerous region of the ocean known as the Soulbiter, the ship is blown off course into the far northern reaches of the Earth and becomes ice-bound. Realizing that the Land's need cannot wait for the spring melt, Thomas Covenant leaves the ship and strikes out south over the ice-scape, accompanied by Linden, Vain, Findail the Elohim , Cail of the Haruchai , and four giants. The party faces many perils on their voyage but eventually meets up with Sunder and Hollian, the natives of the Land that Covenant left behind to try to organize opposition to the corrupt Clave. They have little comfort to offer: the Clave has become so blood-hungry that entire villages have been completely emptied in order to sustain the Banefire, making the corruption of nature by the Sunbane worse than ever. Only the stalwart Haruchai , freed from the Clave's magical coercion, have rallied to the side of freedom. 487 PP, 8 5/8" X 5 5/8" PUBLISHED BY BALLANTINE BOOKS LOWEST SIGNED VIALIBRI LISTING IS $18 NOT EX-LIB
