The Roots of the Mountain

More about the book

Set in a quasi-historical Saxon community, the narrative explores the resistance against the decadent advances of late-Imperial Rome. This romantic-supernatural tale features a blend of prose and verse, showcasing early influences on the fantasy genre. The story is part of a larger thematic exploration known as "The Teutonic thing," which continues in the subsequent work, "The Roots of the Mountain," focusing on another tribal community with a less defined historical backdrop.
