About This Item
HarperCollins: London, 1993. First edition (& 1st printing). Hardcover. Novel set in the Mythago Wood fantasy series. SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY THE AUTHOR. The US Roc hardcover was a year later (1994). Fine copy in a fine dustjacket (as new) but for a little creasing along the bottom spine edge.
Synopsis
The Hollowing is the third fantasy novel of the Mythago Wood series written by award winning author Robert Holdstock and was originally published in 1993. The title refers to a magical pathway, or hollowing, an Old English term for a sunken lane or hollow-way. The Hollowing was inspired by the story Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. Despite primarily featuring new characters, The Hollowing is a sequel to Lavondyss because a handful of characters provide a link between the two novels.
