Gate of Ivory, Gate of Horn by Robert Holdstock Pdf

This novel tells the story that precedes MYTHAGO WOOD. Steven Huxley's father, George, and brother, Christian, elusive, shadowy figures in MYTHAGO WOOD, are the protagonists. This book tells of the beginning of the strange hold that Ryhope Wood will develop over the Huxley family, and George's discovery of the primeval woodland that holds the 'mythagos' - figures from myth, legend or dream - is wonderfully detailed. Mirroring the fate of his brother in MYTHAGO WOOD, Christian is drawn into Ryhope in an attempt to find Guiwenneth, the mythago who has held a special allure for all the men of the Huxley family. His quest, though, is more complex as he is also searching for his mother and, although he would deny it, the father who's obsession has cost the family so much. Christian's introduction to the wood is fascinatingly drawn and in many ways this is the most fantastical of the entire series, replete with mythic archetypes and the dark, mysterious atmosphere that marks the MYTHAGO books as the very best in the field.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Through the Gate of Ivory by Patrick Devaney Pdf

Trinity student Charles Stanihurst, the son of a Dublin merchant and a Roscommon chambermaid, flees his native city after assaulting an English officer and heads for the West of Ireland, where he encounters a culture virtually unknown within the pale. Beyond the Shannon much of the old Gaelic way of life is still intact, though under growing threat from the political power and land greed of the 'foreigners'. Charles is forced to confront divisions between his Anglo-Irish and Gaelic loyalties, while seeking his spiritual father, Bishop William Bedell, who is translating the Old Testament into Irish. Set in post-Flight of the Earls, pre-Cromwellian Ireland of 1641, this novel tells the gripping story of a struggle between two opposing cultures that set the scene for the rebellion sealing the fate of Gaelic Ireland.
