Contains the volumes Titus Groan (reprint, 1969), Gormenghast (reprint, 1970), and Titus Alone (Penguin 1st, 1970).
A doomed lord, an emergent hero, and a dazzling array of bizarre creatures inhabit the magical world of the Gormenghast novels which, along with Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, reign as one of the undisputed fantasy classics of all time. At the center of it all is the seventy-seventh Earl, Titus Groan, who stands to inherit the miles of rambling stone and mortar that form Gormenghast Castle and its kingdom, unless the conniving Steerpike, who is determined to rise above his menial position and control the House of Groan, has his way. In these extraordinary novels, Peake has created a world where all is like a dream - lush, fantastical, and vivid.
Overall condition grading: Good. Some creases to both covers for Titus Groan. Minor wear to spine ends on all. Binding tight. The photographs form part of the description.
