Before there was Atlan, there was The Mountain --- where Goodness waged war against a terrifying Force! On the banks of the magical mountain was a land of flying Satyrs and human-like fairies --- a battleground where the two tribes of the Mountain fought for power. Brought here by her cousin, the Earthling Judith lived in the tranquility of the fantasy world. But, as an Other-worldly being caught between warring peoples, Judith was destined to die... until she discovered the Evil driving her cousin's enemies to fight to regain their power, now and forever!



Praise for this book

"The book was written when Gaskell was 14, and though it suffers from all the flaws her youth would lead you to expect, it is a staggering achievement. A fraught fairyland full of sexuality, and containing the most extraordinary baddy in fiction." - China Miéville
