Críticas:

‘Sonorous, vivid and utterly enthralling’
Times Literary Supplement

‘Indescribably enchanting... a fantasy which celebrates the immensity of love. Simultaneously, it is a celebration of fantasy... should be read several times’
Spectator

‘Classic yet original setting... Mythago Wood is a haunting book... Holdstock’s best’
Guardian

‘Beautifully written and conceived... Some books are hard to put down. I found Mythago Wood hard to shake off’
New York Times

‘A stunningly good book... conveys the haunting power of old heroes and lost gods’
Locus

‘For me, this is the outstanding fantasy book of the 1980s, something to read several times and to rediscover the same delight with every new reading’
Michael Moorcock

Reseña del editor:

A timely reissue of one of the greatest fantasies of the eighties. Strange, beautiful and completely absorbing.

Mythago Wood caused a sensation when it was first published in the UK in the mid eighties. Here was an author dealing in myth and fantasy taken seriously by the press. With this republication of one of the greats of modern British fantasy, it won’t take long for new readers to realise why.

The mystery of Ryhope Wood consumed George Huxley to the point of madness. After his death, his sons take up his life’s work. What they discover goes beyond all conception. For the wood is a place where myths gain flesh and blood, tapping primal fears and desires subdued through the millennia. Where love and beauty haunt your dreams and propel you into the terrifying freedom of insanity.
