The Worm Ouroboros: A Romance by Eric Rücker Eddison
"The Worm Ouroboros: A Romance" by Eric Rücker Eddison is a heroic high fantasy novel published in 1922. Set in an imaginary medieval world, it chronicles the epic war between the domineering King Gorice of Witchland and the Lords of Demonland. Written in seventeenth-century English and incorporating Norse saga influences, the story follows quests through treacherous mountains, sorcerous battles, and heroic struggles. The tale culminates in a climactic confrontation—and an unexpected twist
that transforms victory into something far more mysterious. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
