Welcome to Litsy!

“[They] sat before it in silence, watching the sunset turn the huge glass edifice ahead of them into a castle of fire. Its towers and battlements glowed first a fierce red, then orange, then a gold which cooled rapidly to ocher.”

#CastleontheHill made me think of Revelstone, the fortress giants carved out of the Westron mountains. I tagged book one of the Final Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever because that‘s where this particular map first appears, but please note there are six books before this one! #WanderingJune

Five books that are about castles, some in a hill and some not, from my book stacks. I've read them all but The Keep & I hope to get to it one of these days.

Was going to post a book I‘ve talked about before and then saw some touristy posts - so darn it - I‘m joining in. There are no real castles in New Zealand so this was my first “fake” castle which i saw at 10yo. Larnach Castle built in 1871, in England would barely be a grand house 😂 Still I loved the narrow spiral stairs up into its turret and imagined ghostly dancers in its deserted ballroom.

I always think of Poe's classic The Fall of The House of Usher when someone says #CastleontheHill

This castle is literally situated on a promontory hill!

Where there is a Queen, there must be a castle! #castleonthehill #wanderingjune
