Superbly imagined and brimming with philosophical insight, In the Suicide Mountains is a tribute to Gardner�s passion for medieval storytelling, and an unforgettable novel in its own right. This ebook features a new illustrated biography of John Gardner, including original letters, rare photos, and never-before-seen documents from the Gardner family and the University of Rochester Archives.

Sullen royalty, strong women in armor, and a misunderstood dwarf might sound familiar to epic fantasy fans. Gardner however, keeps it light in this short , breezy story. Good example of how to build characters and worlds with very few words. Fun story - worth an afternoon read.
