- Synopsis
- World Without End is a 600 page conventional fantasy novel Written by the Canadian author Sean Russell and first published in 1995. It is the first book in a series by Russell entitled Moontide and Magic Rise; Sea without a Shore (a Bookshare possession) is the second book in this series. The River into Darkness (a Bookshare possession) is a subsequent omnibus set in the same universe that contains two books, Beneath the Vaulted Hills and The Compass of the Soul. DAW Books's summary of World Without End reads as follows: LOST SECRETS OF THE MAGES The Age of the Mages is over, and all magical arts are thought to be lost to the world. There are even those who suspect that the last of the great Mages spent their final years scrupulously eradicating all traces of their craft from the pages of history- that their art will never be practiced again. It is the dawn of a new era: an age of reason, science and exploration, and Tristam Flattery, is one of its most promising young" naturalists. But when Tristam is summoned to the royal court of Farrland to try to revitalize a failing species of plant which seems to have mysterious, almost magical, medicinal properties-a plant without which, he is told, the aging king will surely die - he soon realizes that he has been drawn into the heart of a political struggle which spans generations, a conflict which threatens the very foundations of civilization. And before long, Tristam is caught in the grip of a destiny which will lead him to the ends of the known world-on a voyage of discovery that has more to do with magic than with science....
