Majipoor Chronicles by Robert Silverberg
Majipoor Chronicles takes us further into Majipoor with a collection of stories covering thousands of years of the world’s history. The bestselling fantasy saga that began with Lord Valentine’s Castle and continued with Valentine Pontifex continues in Majipoor Chronicles as the young street urchin Hissune gets his due for helping Lord Valentine regain his throne. As a reward, he is sent into the depths of the Labyrinth where he relives the lives of Majipoor’s most famous and notorious inhabitants. Each story has a universal truth to it that is haunting. In these fabulous tales the incredibly rich setting of Robert Silverberg’s world of Majipoor is used to the full, sending the reader to new and wonderful places. The scope and detailed history Silverberg has created for this world is breathtaking.`There are two things that abide: absolute awe at Silverberg’s capacity for creating images… he makes you see, believe, be there witnessing… and the overarching compassion that colours every word and all the souls in his enormous world’
Los Angeles Times
`A grand tale by one of the great storytellers of the century’
Roger Zelazny
On Lord Valentine’s Castle:
`Silverberg’s invention is prodigious… like a competent juggler, he maintains his rhythm and suspense to the end’
