Stephen R. Donaldson has written one of my favorite series, Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Unbeliever. The Fantasy Genre this has to be one of the best ever written.
Thomas Covenant is a man shunned by his community because he is a Leper, he "falls" into another realm were he has the power to conquer evil and be the hero. The only problem is he doesnīt believe in himself and his powers and through out the series he struggles to find himself and do something right.
It is a complex story with many twists and turns. It is not a a very uplifting story at times. And you wonder if Thomas will every do anything right. But I do highly recommend itif you enjoy excellent Fantasy writing, Stephen is a master story teller. Once you start this series, you wonīt stop.
This Series is 6 books in total. I have listed all 6 below.
Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Unbeliever:
- Lord Foulīs Bane
- The Illearth War
- Power that Preserves
Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Unbeliever
- The Wounded Land
- The One Tree
- White Gold Wielder
Stephen has also written another series. One that I found over complex and seemed to lack any real story. Itīs his first try into the Space genre and in my opinion he fails.
The Gap Cycle Series
- The Real Story
- Forbbidden Knowledge
- A Dark and Hungry God Arises
- Chaos and Order
- This Day All Gods Die
