The Night Land

Millions of years in the future, the sun has died and humanity survives in a vast pyramid, surrounded by eternal night. Outside, monstrous forces and ancient peoples roam a landscape of terror. When a young man of the Great Redoubt hears a distant call from another refuge, he sets out on a journey across the Night Land to find the woman he believes is his lost love.

This is a novel of cosmic dread and enduring romance, a foundational work of dark science fiction. William Hope Hodgson's vision of a dying Earth and a love that transcends time has influenced generations of writers. Readers who enjoy atmospheric horror, far-future fantasy, and epic quests will find much to admire in its strange and haunting pages.

This edition contains the complete text of The Night Land, a new introduction, a character guide, a summary, themes, a glossary, and discussion questions.
