Overview

The Wandering Fire is the second novel of Guy Gavriel Kay’s critically acclaimed fantasy trilogy, The Fionavar Tapestry. A mage’s power has brought five university students from our world into a realm where an ancient evil has freed itself from captivity to wreak revenge on its enemies…

The ice of eternal winter has reached out to enshroud Fionavar, the first of all worlds. For the Unraveller has broken free after millennia enchained—and now his terrible vengeance has begun to take its toll on mortals and immortals, mages and warriors, dwarves and the lios alfar, the Children of Light.

Only five men and women of our own world, brought by magic across the Tapestry of worlds to the very heart of the Weaver’s pattern, can hope to wake the allies they so desperately need. Yet none can foretell whether even these beings out of legend have the power to shatter the Unraveller’s icy grip of death upon the land…

The ice of eternal winter enshrouds Fionavar and frees the Unraveller, whose terrible vengeance takes its toll on mortals and immortals, mages and warriors, dwarves and the Children of Light. Only five people who were brought by a mage's power to Fionavar can hope to wake the allies they so desperately need. "One of the very best of the fantasies which have appeared since Tolkien. . . ."--Andre Norton. Reissue.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
In the second book of Kay's Fionavar Tapestry, the five protagonistsordinary Toronto college studentsreturn once more to become warriors and wizards in the beleaguered fantasy world of Fionavar, now suffering an unnaturally prolonged winter. To combat dread Rakoth Maugrim, King Arthur and Lancelot are revived and the Wild Hunt summoned from its long sleep. Together they vanquish the attacking wolf packs and shatter the cauldron of power. As the book ends, though, they are still deep in danger and hopelessly mired somewhere in mid-story. This elaborate, lore-filled fantasy, smelling of dusty library stacks and perfumed prose, will doubtless please those who enjoyed the first volume, The Summer Tree. Both are striking as unconscious but almost clinical catalogues of an adolescent world view, full of self-dramatization and self-pity, a desperation for instant status or celebrity, a preoccupation with lost love and death (which become equivalent totems) and a general lack of humor or perspective. SF Book Club Main selection. ( June 27)

    Fionavar Tapestry

    This book, along with all the others of the Fionavar Tapestry is a wonderful read. While I love Tolkien and love his world, the place on my shelf that is reserved for my favorite book(s) of all is reserved for these. There is no one who I have recommended these too who has not loved them. Read these if not for the story, then for the characters which are fantastic, all of them, in and of themselves. From Galadan the Wolflord to the Twiceborn of Mornir, you have to read this series to understand how intense Kay's world is.
