This complete "Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever" contains the books "Lord Foul's Bane", "The Illearth War" and "The Power that Preserves".
The first chronicles of Thomas Covenant, the Unbeliever is a fantasy series written by Stephen Donaldson. The series follows the principle character of Thomas Covenant who is a disillusioned, bitter and very cynical writer afflicted with leprosy.
Shunned by society, Thomas is hit by a car and awakes in a strange alternate world full of strange creatures and magic. Truly an original creation, The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant is a truly classic trilogy that ranks alongside Tolkien.

Re-read #6,
This review is from: The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever: Lord Foul's Bane; The Illearth War; The Power That Preserves (Hardcover)
I have read this series six times. A complete world is created in the mind of a man or is it all within another reality? This is a highly thought provoking look into the rules and structure that a leprous person must deal with. Plus a ton of fantasy with creatures you never dreamed of.

This review is from: The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever: Lord Foul's Bane; The Illearth War; The Power That Preserves (Hardcover)
there is not really too much that I want to say about the thomas covenant series of books --- I love epic fantasy and after tolkien i think donaldson's 6 books plus of thomas covenant and "the land" is the next best read. truthfully, donaldson wrote the first 2 sets (6 books) in the late 70s --- I have read these 6 books perhaps 30 times since then --- I don't think I need to say much more than that...on top of everything, donaldson is a very down to earth and nice guy --- altho he is a bit harder to reach now after all these years --- the last book of thomas covenant (that would make 9) is coming out this fall I think... 5 stars is not enough for this epic --- i would do 5 stars for each of the first 6 books...
5.0 out of 5 stars
Thought it was a boxset, not one huge book.,

As the title implied, but that it alright. It's one big book, all three stories are inside. It's big, it's thick and it's 3 stories. I read this as a teenage kid, so I got it for my grandson who is a little younger, but has a good imagination.
