Críticas:

“A spellbinder. The secret of Garner’s magic is that it is stripped of whimsy... A beautiful work of poetic imagination, it deserves to become a classic of fantasy.”
The Listener

“Each detail, ordinary or sinister, establishes atmosphere, background or character exactly. Elidor is a remarkable book: intelligent, rich and terrifying.”
TLS

“An outstanding book.”
The Teacher

“Adventure of a staggering grandeur... beautiful, profound, disturbing. His myths and terrors seem to me immortal.”
The New Christian

“Ambitiously imagined and worked out with a hard economical tension. The climax, a peak after chapters of mounting terror, is brilliant.”
The New Statesman

Reseña del editor:

Roland, Helen, Nicholas and David, four Manchester children, are led into Elidor, a twilight world almost destroyed by fear and darkness.

On a gloomy day in Manchester, Roland, Helen, Nicholas and David are lured into a ruined church, where the fabric of time and place is weak enough to allow them into the twilight world of Elidor. It is a place almost destroyed by fear and darkness, and the children are charged with guarding its Treasures while a way is sought to save the dying land.

Then the evil forces find a path through to this world...
