Elidor

Product Information

Roland has allowed out into his relationships with the world and other people, something from the darkness of his inner self which is destructive and self-seeking. A reread today 40 years later to my youngest who had forgotten hearing this some time ago when she was small.

The sound of air being torn like cloth burst on them, a dreadful sound that cracked with the force of lightning, as if the sky had split, and out of it came the noise of galloping hoofs. And it is the urge to be important in his sibling’s eyes that leads him into an act of hubris parallel with Ged’s in releasing the Shadow. It was a brave Mrs McEke that tried to illustrate symbolism to a bunch of largely disinterested nine year olds. I recommend you to read this because this is a good book, but personally I didn't like it as much as other books I have read.

Malebron is in desperate straits and asks the children to take all four treasures of Elidor, including his own spear, back to their world to hide them from the powers of evil.

There is a good deal in Roland of the despised youngest son of three, who in fairy tales of the traditional kind would be fated to come out on top in a blaze of glorious self-justification. He still lives in the area, and is still as passionate about its history, creating a trust to preserve, study and care for a part of it.When they turned the corner the white fluorescence of the railway station at the end of the road was like a sanctuary.
