Sinopse
Características

This vintage book contains the first volume of William Morriss 1896 novel, The Well at the Worlds End. It is a fantasy novel that, along with Morriss other work, The Wood Beyond the World (1894), inspired the writings of J. R. R. Tolkien. It is the story of Ralph of Upmeads, a son of a king who sets out, against his parents desires, to seek out the fabled Well at the Worlds End, a magical well that will give those who drink of it godlike powers. An enthralling and masterfully-written tale of fantasy and adventure, The Well at the Worlds End is highly recommended for fans of the genre, and it is not to be missed by collectors of Morriss work. William Morris (1834 - 1896) was an English poet, novelist, translator, and activist. Many texts such as this are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
