Paperback: 9¼" x 6". Condizione: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Dave Rapoza (illustratore). 2010 Edition. © 2010: 1st in the 'Elves' series of books. Unknown publication date. 2nd printing of 2010 edition:- Synopsis: Is the shame of defeat immortal? Takaar, Lord of the TaiGethan the hero of countless battles, defender of the faith for nearly two thousand years. But in the last battle his courage broke. The elves have fought to escape an ancient evil. The fight was brutal, the TaiGethan Warrior caste was all but wiped out. But with nearly all having crossed the dimensions to safety in Calaius, the battle line breaks and a hundred thousand elves are left to their doom. And elves remember when courage fails. Takaar is shunned and vilified and the anger of his people is matched only by his own shame. For an elf who once walked with Gods perhaps the ultimate shame of taking his own life is only fitting. But in Calaius the Elven nation is tearing itself apart. A thousand years of peace has allowed old rivalries to be reborn and elves who once stood shoulder to shoulder now face each other across lines of swords. Men from the North are fanning the flames. War is coming. Auum, a TaiGethan warrior, believes there is one elf who can unite them again. And so begins a perilous quest to bring Takaar back from the forests, to unite elves against the true enemy: Mankind:- Review(s): Praise for James Barclay's 'Raven' novels: "Novels you want to read again and again" - David Gemmell:- (original cost £12.99).

Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Condizione: Very Good: Light signs of wear. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Cover Art: Dave Rapoza (illustratore). 1st Edition. © 2012: 2nd in the 'Elves' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: The elves are enslaved. Calaius is occupied by an implacable, relentless enemy. The great elven cities are little more than prison camps. Elven slaves are forced to destroy their beloved rainforest to harvest timber for their masters. The enemy has no mercy, no honour and little skill in battle. The enemy is Man. Those few elves who remain free are fragmented, in squabbling factions, and they must unite before they can take a stand. Many believe that the battle is already lost, but Auum is not one of them. He knows Men's numbers are great but their tactics are weak; he knows Men think the Elves are already beaten; he is convinced that his people must fight now, or see their race destroyed. Takaar disagrees. He believes Elven salvation lies in unlocking their magic, not fighting pitched battles against Man. He is determined to save his people too, but his tactics are entirely different. And if some Elves must die now to ensure Calaius will be free of Men in the future, it's a sacrifice he is willing to make. The Elves must choose their sides. Whatever they decide, victory will win their freedom. And failure will mean extermination:- Review(s): Praise for James Barclay: "Novels you want to read again and again" - David Gemmell / "'Elves: Once Walked With Gods' is beautifully written with touches of emotional context richly woven within. Death, honour, betrayal and double dealing abound within this title and its clearly a demonstration of James Barclay's talent that he manages it with skill to spare" - Falcata Times:- (original cost £18.99).
