The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant 01: Lord Foul's Bane - Stephen Donaldson

Kicking off one of the most celebrated series in fantasy literature . . . and introducing Thomas Covenant, the legendary antihero, who is about to start a dark adventure like no other

Yet Thomas Covenant had no idea how those powers could be tapped . . .
