| | Overview of the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever |
 | | The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever are a series of fantasy novels of tremendous scope and a psychological depth never before attempted. | | | Written by Stephen R. Donaldson (who later authored the Gap series of science fiction novels) the Chronicles reveal the existence of another Earth, and recount the otherworldly adventures and struggles of a human from our Earth, Thomas Covenant. | | | The Second Chronicles are comprised of three novels -- The Wounded Land, The One Tree and White Gold Wielder -- that cover Covenant's return some ten Earthly years later during which time three or four millennia have elapsed in the other world. |

| | Covenant is back in the Land |
| | The curse: Readers' expectations are high for "The Runes of the Earth: Book One of the Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant" (Putnam; $26.95), the first of four books that will conclude the Covenant tale. | | | Considering that it has been 21 years since the death of Thomas Covenant in "The Second Chronicles," Donaldson is expecting a lot from himself, also. | | | It can be a blessing and a curse to write a series as wildly popular as "The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever" and "The Second Chronicles of Thomas Covenant." |

| | The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant |
| | Covenant has been warned by Lord Foul, who more or less represents Satan, that The Land will come under his control within 49 years. | | | The second half of the book deals with Covenant accompanying the High Lord Elena (actually his daughter from his despicable act in the first book) in search of powerful lore that may help defend The Land. | | | This books mainly covers Covenant's struggles to deny that The Land exists and avoid learning how to use his power. |
