Brought to you by Penguin. THE FINAL PART OF THE MIGHTY GORMENGHAST TRILOGY In this final part of the trilogy, we follow Titus, now almost twenty, as he escapes from the Castle, flees its oppressive Ritual, and becomes lost in a sandstorm. Helped by the owner of a travelling zoo, Muzzlehatch, and his ex-lover Juno, Titus ends up stranded in a big, bustling city. No one there having heard of Gormenghast, the general consensus is that the boy is deranged, and with no papers, he's soon arrested for vagrancy. But there are a few people who believe in his story, or at least who are intrigued by it, and they try to help him. And now Titus, the deserter, the traitor, longs for his home, and looks for it all the time to prove, if only to himself, that Gormenghast is truly real. 'I would not for anything have missed Gormenghast' C S Lewis '[The Gormenghast Trilogy] is one of the most important works of the imagination to come out of the age that also produced The Four Quartets, The Unquiet Grave, Brideshead Revisited, The Loved One, Animal Farm and 1984.'

Seller's Description:
Pepper Bob. 284 p. 1st paperback edition from Ballantine (73009), 1968. VERY GOOD w/ink on spine, ink address inside, rubbed wraps. Bob Pepper cover art, interior art by the author.
the Gormenghast trilogy is a tour de force of Gothic fantasy. however it loses its power when Titus Groan leaves the kingdom and enters the "real" world. this, the third and last book is set in that reality. it is a let down from the brilliance of the first two books. you will want to read it for completeness sake but it is no where near as compelling as the first 2/3.
