NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of Never Let Me Go and the Booker Prize–winning novel The Remains of the Day comes a luminous meditation on the act of forgetting and the power of memory. In post-Arthurian Britain, the wars that once raged between the Saxons and the Britons have finally ceased. Axl and Beatrice, an elderly British couple, set off to visit their son, whom they haven't seen in years. And, because a strange mist has caused mass amnesia throughout the land, they can scarcely remember anything about him. As they are joined on their journey by a Saxon warrior, his orphan charge, and an illustrious knight, Axl and Beatrice slowly begin to remember the dark and troubled past they all share. By turns savage, suspenseful, and intensely moving, The Buried Giant is a luminous meditation on the act of forgetting and the power of memory.

Amethyst, the Ogre Witch-Queen, seeks to enslave Jacob, last of the Foresters, and usurp his powers. He obtains the aid of the Seers receiving a new staff with the power to defeat her. Hamill, least experienced of the seers, is charged with the task of gathering support from the dwarves and others. Darkness covers the land; violent storms and sickness strike at the heart of the Yield preventing former allies sending aid. Hamill turns to his friend, Jon and together they travel north to the Mountain City of the Colossi. Javelin, Archer and Trapper, three of the dwarves who fought with them against Ebon, rally to their cause, along with Braun, the Metal-master. This brave little band head south to meet the forester but Hamill did not count on having to battle with his feelings for Sylvia, an elf from the Ward who travels with them to Winters Hold. The journey is fraught with danger as they encounter opposition at every turn. Separated, they are captured by the ogres but Sylvia's ingenuity enables them to escape only for Hamill and the dwarves to fall foul of a trap. Facing Amethyst at last they challenge her in a combined effort; she summons the power that has lain dormant within her; a power that would have consequences for them all. Witness their struggles as they battle for the safety of the land and all who dwell in it. Will they finally subdue Amethyst saving them from a new dark age or will she become Witch-Queen over the land? Part two of the Golden Tome takes you on a breathtaking journey equal to the first. With your favorite characters from part one, Time Will Tell', it will have you spellbound and yearning for more.
