To Green Angel Tower
Cover: Michael Whelan.
Locus Award nominee 1994.
This final volume in the best-selling fantasy masterwork Memory, Sorrow and Thorn, brings to a stunning and surprising conclusion Tad Williams' monumental tale of a magical conflict which fractures the very fabric of time and space, turning both humans and Sithi against those of their own blood.
As the evil minions of the undead Sithi Storm King prepare for the kingdom-shattering culmination of their dark sorceries and King Elias is drawn ever deeper into their nightmarish, spell-spun world, the loyal allies of Prince Josua desperately struggle to rally their forces at the Stone of Farewell. And with time running out, the remaining members of the now-devastated League of the Scroll have also gathered there to unravel mysteries from the forgotten past. For if the League can reclaim these age-old secrets of magic long-buried beneath the dusts of time, they may be able to reveal to Josua and his army the only means of striking down the unslayable foe.
But whether or not the League is successful in its quest, the call of battle will lead the valiant followers of Josua Lackhand across storm-tossed seas brimming with bloodthirsty kilpa... through forests swarming with those both mind- and soul-lost... through ancient caverns built by legendary Dwarrows... to the haunted halls of Asu'a itself – the Sithi's greatest stronghold!

Tad Williams
Tad Williams never set out to create entire worlds from scratch—yet, in many ways, that's exactly what he's done. Known for his lush, expansive fantasy novels, Williams has an uncanny ability to make the fantastical feel deeply human. His work taps into the timeless themes of adventure, destiny, and the complexity of the human spirit, all while layering in rich, immersive worlds that are as fully realized as the characters who inhabit them.
Born in San Jose, California, Williams’ journey into writing was not a straight line. He began his career as a writer of short stories and a member of the underground comics scene before discovering his passion for epic fantasy. It was the immense, world-spanning narrative of The Dragonbone Chair, the first book in Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn, that catapulted him into the literary spotlight. His ability to balance sweeping, epic landscapes with intimate character studies made him a standout in the genre and drew comparisons to other masters of fantasy, while allowing him to carve out a voice uniquely his own.
Memory, Sorrow and Thorn
This New York Times-bestselling epic fantasy trilogy, about a young castle servant who saves his kingdom from evil, defined Tad Williams as one of the most important fantasy writers of our time.
Memory, Sorrow and Thorn consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
Book Reviews
To Green Angel Tower is the third and final book of Memory, Sorrow and Thorn. I enjoyed reading this book. It was very entertaining and interesting. By the way, if you buy the paperback version of To Green Angel Tower, you must remember to buy two books (Part 1 and Part 2).
