AEgypt [AEgypt Series Book 1] [MultiFormat]
by John Crowley
|
|
In the 1970s, an historian named Pierce Moffett moves to the country to write a book, driven by an idea he dare not believe. That the physical laws of the universe once changed and may change again. That before science defined the modern age, other powers, wondrous and magical, once governed the universe, their lore perfected within a lost capital of hieroglyphs, wizard-kings, and fabulous monuments. Not in Egypt--but AEgypt. Yet the notion is not his alone. Something waits at the locked estate ... more info>> 1987

Love & Sleep [AEgypt Series Book 2] [MultiFormat]
by John Crowley
|
|
Love & Sleep continues the tale of Ægypt, a magical country displaced from the physical world. Historian Pierce Moffett's route toward Ægypt had been charted from his youth in the coal hills of Kentucky, where he was introduced to Catholic doctrine and country mysticism, to an urchin girl with ancestral ties to werewolves, and to an elemental creature that may have abetted the forest fire he accidentally started. In the current day, Pierce and Boney Rasmussen, his patron, search the work of hist... more info>> 1994

Endless Things: A Part of AEgypt [MultiFormat]
by John Crowley
|
|
This is the fourth novel--and much-anticipated conclusion--of John Crowley's astonishing and lauded AEgypt sequence: a dense, lyrical meditation on history, alchemy, and memory. Spanning three centuries, and weaving together the stories of Renaissance magician John Dee, philosopher Giordano Bruno, and present-day itinerant historian and writer Pierce Moffett, the AEgypt sequence is as richly significant as Lawrence Durrell's Alexandria Quartet or Anthony Powell's Dance to the Music of Time.
