The Iron Tree - Cecilia Dart-Thornton
Product Information The Iron Tree - Cecilia Dart-Thornton Jarred, recently come of age, is leaving the sun-scorched desert village that has always been his home. He sets out with a band of friends to explore the world, to see the mighty and beautiful kingdom of the north - and to seek out the truth about his father, who came to the village a stranger and departed when Jarred was ten, never to return. After the travellers are set upon in a ravine and several of their number sustain injuries, they seek shelter in the Marsh of Slievmordhu. The waterlands are a far-extending tapestry of cool green streams, ravelled woods, and reed-fringed lagoons - a world of dazzling beauty as different from their homeland as night and day. Here Jarred meets Lilith, and in a single moment he realises that his life can never be the same again. But neither of the young lovers is aware how closely linked their fates - and their past - really are. During a visit to Cathair Rua, the Red City, Jarred stumbles across the secret of the Iron Tree, and with it an unbearable truth about his father's identity? From the author of the highly acclaimed 'Bitterbynde' trilogy comes this breathtaking first volume in THE CROWTHISTLE CHRONICLES - THE IRON TREE, an extraordinary tale of jealousy and revenge, of wickedness and justice and, above all, love. This softcover volume published by Tor in 2004 is in excellent condition. It has very little wear and has not been read.
