Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Sundering Flood" by William Morris is a fantasy novel published in 1897. Osberne and Elfhild are lovers separated by an immense, uncrossable river. When Elfhild vanishes during a brutal invasion, Osberne takes up his magical sword and joins a quest to overthrow a tyrannical regime. His journey leads him through war and adventure as he searches desperately for his lost love. This posthumous work, completed on Morris' deathbed, is recognized as a landmark in fantasy literature—possibly the first to include a map of an entirely imagined world.
