Download Titus Alone: Volume 3 of the Gormenghast Trilogy AudioBook Free
A doomed lord, an emergent hero, and an array of bizarre creatures haunt the world of the Gormenghast novels, regarded as some of the best fantasy classics of all time. At their center is the seventy-seventh earl, Titus Groan, who stands to inherit the miles of rambling stone and mortar that form Gormenghast Castle and its own kingdom. Within this third volume, Titus turns resistant to the iron discipline of Gormenghast Castle, abdicating his throne and setting forth by using an uncertain quest--for himself. His pilgrimage brings about encounters with mysteriously omnipotent police and a battle to the death with Veil, a fearsome ogre with a body like whips and a face that moves "like the shiftings of the gray slime of the pit." In his quest for independence from his legacy, Titus successfully captures the universal struggle to "come of age." This final installment in the Gormenghast trilogy is a fantastic triumph--a conquest awash in imagination, terror, and charm.
