Book description
For Poilar Crookleg, the Pilgrimage to Kosa Saag has been a lifelong
dream. Each year twenty men and twenty women attempt to reach the
Summit, converse with the gods, and return with new knowledge. A few
Pilgrims return as madmen. Most are never seen again. Poilar and his
childhood friend Traiben are determined to survive the terrifying
journey not as madmen but as teachers of wisdom. Traversing mysterious
Kingdoms and blasted landscapes, braving ghosts and monstrous
apparitions, they will arrive at the secret of the gods themselves - a
secret that will shatter centuries of belief and change their world
forever. Robert Silverberg (1935 - ) Robert Silverberg was born in
