Strandloper (Harvill Panther S.)
by Alan Garner
Category: Fiction

Over the next thirty-two years, William becomes Murrangurk in reality - the law-giver and healer of the People, a highly initiated, powerful and holy man - brought from the dead for a quest that only he can achieve. When he does, at last, return to England, it is neither as William Buckley nor as Murrangurk, but as "Strandloper". And in a magnificent and redemptive climax, the Dreaming of the Aborigines and the ancient magic of England are fused as one.
