Beschreibung

"The lost fiction-fantasy and horror-of the famous Christian writer. A revered priest's horrifying metaphysical secret that is revealed only after his death. A sculptor's obsessive desire to craft the horrific face that haunts his dreams and drives him to madness. A journey upriver to an unspoiled realm whose denizens revile anything tainted by humans. The sole survivor of an island shipwreck and the terrifying ancient being he confronts"-- Provided by publisher.
