In the words of Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine: "Julian May has made a new and fresh masterwork in the genre and has irrevocably placed herself among the great of fantasy and science fiction."
Covering all four novelsâ??The Many-Colored Land, The Golden Torc, The Nonborn King, and The Adversaryâ??this reading guideoffers a plot chronology, the author's original maps, a descriptive listing of all the characters, and three delightful interviews with May herself.

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. And I said, "You can stop, if you want, with the Z,
Because most people stop with the Z — but not me!
In the places I go there are things that I see
That I never could spell if I stopped with the Z.
I'm telling you this 'cause you're one of my friends.
My alphabet starts where your alphabet ends!
You'll be sort of surprised what there is to be found
Once you go beyond Z and start poking around."
—from On Beyond Zebra, Dr. Seuss  | |
