Tess

I grew up on Thomas Covenant. I snuck the original books out of my brother's room when i was in middle school, and from there on out was a fan of fiction/fantasy/role playing. Granted, i was too young to understand most of it, but it was the coolest thing ever. ...that was 30 years ago. 30 years later, Stephen R. Donaldson has finally presented us the last of the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant. The first two books in this final trilogy were long-winded and painful, but this one is the crown jewel of long winded and painful.

We are forced to spend FAR too much time inside of linden avery's mind, where you are forced to endure repetition ad nauseam, and FAR too much time listening to TC spouting nonsense (that after my brain melted from boredom, actually started making sense). 3 days in, i'm not even a fraction of the way through, and i'm doubting at this point i can finish it. i'm so brain-dead by this book that i don't even want to finish this review...

We begged and begged for him to continue writing after the second chronicles. If only we knew then what we know now...
