The Gift: The First Book of Pellinor

Alison Croggon

The first book in the highly acclaimed Pellinor series

Maerad is a slave in a desperate and unforgiving settlement, taken there as a child when her family is destroyed in war. She is unaware that she possesses a powerful Gift, a Gift that makes her a member of the School of Pellinor. It is only when she is discovered by Cadvan, one of the great Bards of Lirigon, that her true heritage and extraordinary destiny unfolds. Now, she and her teacher Cadvan must survive a perilous journey through a time and place where the dark force they battle with stem from the deepest recesses of other-worldly terror.

This epic fantasy about Maerad and her astonishing yet dangerous Gift is an unforgettable tale. Steeped in the rich and complex landscape of Annar, a legendary world few have yet discovered, it is one of literature’s most exciting stories.

‘Passionate, inspiring characters… vividly described landscapes… a great series of fantasy novels…’ The Bookseller (UK)
