Mythago Wood
ByPublisher Description
Myth and Terror in the Forest Deeps
The mystery of Ryhope Wood, Britain's last fragment of primeval forest, consumed George Huxley's entire long life. Now, after his death, his sons have taken up his work. But what they discover is numinous and perilous beyond all expectation.
For the Wood, larger inside than out, is a labyrinth full of myths come to life, "mythagos" that can change you forever. A labyrinth where love and beauty haunt your dreams. . .and may drive you insane.
"Utterly enthralling."
--Times Literary Supplement
"Robert Holdstock's is one of the voices at the very heart of modern fantasy."
-Guy Gavriel Kay
"One of the strangest, most beautiful and most compelling fantasies I have ever read. A marvel of a book." --Keith Roberts

“I really enjoyed this book overall, the concept of the Mythagos was really interesting, and reminded me a lot of the concept of Tulpas from Buddhist mysticism.
I enjoyed the use of mythology and folklore in this book, which made the realm of Rhyope wood feel very whimsical and very familiar.
My only criticism was the way the author described the main female character as childlike quite a few times, however, being written in the 80s I wasn’t too surprised by this.
Overall a very interesting read, and I will be reading the second book in the series shortly :)”Start a Book Club
