Description:

A story of divisions and unions, of opposites and identities, and a modern-minded homage to one of fantasy's best-loved authors. At the heart of this ambitious novel, the slow, though mortal, competition between Brook and her haunt-twin Jo reverberates through everyone around them and through the war that unbalances their world. Though at story's end equilibrium is attained, we have learned how fragile that is, and, setting the book down, the reader can guess at the characters' future and value their present peace in a way that they cannot. Stewart's mythically rich world of lives and stories is engrossing, and the cleanly lyric prose is at times breathtaking. Memorable characters, a world of wonders, and solid plot make the best fantasy, and Clouds End contains all.
