Synopsis

One of the greatest, most haunting works of supernatural fiction ever written! In a mysterious, brooding ruin clinging to the edge of an abyss in the timeless Irish hinterland, the journal of the last tenant is discovered. In it he has recorded his mind-wrenching involuntary adventures. Descents into the Pit, desperate battles against the subhuman Swinefolk, voyages across the dimensions and through aeons of time to the centre of the Universe and the death of the Solar System—these are just some of the elements in this unique classic of fantasy fiction.
