Books with author Geraldine Harris

In the first part of `Seven Citadels', Prince Kerish, pampered favourite son of the Emperor of Galkis, and his half-brother Forollkin, are sent to find seven sorcerers who each hold the key to a gate. Legend says that that the seven gates imprison a Savior, who alone can save the embattled Galkian Empire and its Godborn rulers. In the dangerous world beyond Galkis, Kerish is forced to depend on his soldier brother. The prince soon discovers something that will make their quest much more difficult—if a sorcerer surrenders his key, he also gives up immortality. When the first sorcerer turns out to be a benevolent philosopher king, the brothers begin to question whether the cost of saving Galkis is too high.

In the third part of `Seven Citadels', Prince Kerish, his half-brother Forollkin, his cousin Gwerath and the enigmatic Gidjabolgo, have escaped from the nomads and reached the corrupt Queendom of Seld. After battling the terrible creatures which guard the fourth citadel, worse dangers await Kerish in the ghostly kingdom of the tormented fifth sorcerer. In the brothers' homeland, Galkis, traitors are plotting to seize the throne and the barbarians have invaded. The quest for the legendary Savior seems more urgent than ever, but the eccentric sixth sorcerer makes the companions rethink their destinies.`Seven Citadels'This acclaimed quartet, set in the exotic world of Zindar, tells the story of Kerish and Forollkin, two very different brothers sent on an epic journey to save their country.
