About This Book
A masterful epic of magic, politics, war, and the power of love and hate—from the renowned author of The Fionavar Tapestry and Children of Earth and Sky. Tigana is the magical story of a beleaguered land struggling to be free. It is the tale of a people so cursed by the black sorcery of a cruel despotic king that even the name of their once-beautiful homeland cannot be spoken or remembered...
Who This Is For
Best for readers who want to feel something deeply, books that stay with you long after the last page. This is a book that asks something of you. Dense, layered, and best read slowly. It takes its time, and that's the point. Patience is rewarded. If you prefer to read at arm's length, this one may get too close.
Best Read When
Best read when you're in the mood for something moving and emotionally resonant, and a read that's slow and deeply immersive.
What It Explores
Tigana explores identity and the gap between who we are and who we pretend to be, power structures and how they shape individual lives, love in its most complicated forms, and redemption — whether it is earned, possible, or ever truly complete.
