AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An intelligent, exciting, soulful story, Chelandra is filled with fantasy, adventure, mystery, humour, and romance. It is a book about humanity and the precarious and glorious nature that supports it. Immerse yourself in the myriad adventures of young Chelandran woman, Galla Jenari, as she travels through tumultuous lands of ethereal beauty to learn of the world around her. Along with her charming uncle, Obronder, the mysterious Yanerian, Masande, and the impetuous Gaklari, Shiran Ajaner, Galla encounters wonders both glorious and terrifying! Creatures of gossamer and light; monsters of savage ferocity. Enchanted life forms and lake-dwelling spirits. Fantastic machines, wondrous cities and drowned citadels. Strange cultures and customs, fabulous fairs and intoxicating rituals. Frightening shamans, exotic music, and feverish dancing. Fiery battles, plague, starvation, and destruction. Characters quirky, murky, delightful and strange. Timeless wisdom, treacherous lovers, tender romance, and haunted insanity...The companions discover all these things, but above all else, themselves, and each other. Journey with them and discover Chelandra's secrets!' (Publisher's blurb)
