To destroy the sorcerer who condemned him to Hell, Dilvish must first survive a land where reality itself has gone mad. Set shortly after the events chronicled in Dilvish, the Damned, the sequel The Changing Land continues the adventures of Dilvish, a half-elf warrior driven by vengeance against his ancient enemy, the truly evil sorcerer Jelerak. His pursuit leads to Castle Timeless, an impossible fortress surrounded by a lethal landscape that continually reshapes itself under the influence of an unhinged demigod.
The castle has become the prize in a deadly contest among ambitious wizards, demons, and supernatural powers, each seeking control of the secrets hidden within. To reach Jelerak, Dilvish and his fire-breathing metal steed, Black, must cross a maze of magical storms, shifting terrain, monstrous creatures, and ruptures in time and space. As Castle Timeless slips beyond the boundaries of reality, the conflict attracts the attention of the Elder Gods—and the fate of the universe may be decided by their whims.
Locus Award-nominated full-length novel The Changing Land by Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Roger Zelazny is a breathtaking sword-and-sorcery adventure filled with dark magic, warring sorcerers, surreal landscapes, and mythic quests. Combining heroic fantasy with Lovecraftian terror and Zelazny’s signature wit, the novel brings the saga of Dilvish the Damned to its spectacular conclusion.
Perfect for fans of Michael Moorcock, Jack Vance, Fritz Leiber, Robert E. Howard, and H. P. Lovecraft, as well as readers of dark fantasy, cosmic horror, occult stories of ancient eldritch gods, preternatural fiction, supernatural revenge stories, and reality-bending adventures.
"A storyteller without peer. He created worlds as colorful and exotic and memorable as any our genre has ever seen." –George R.R. Martin
