I received the first book of the Final Chronicles of Thomas Covenant today and wrote this little 'Ode to the Unbeliever' in honor of it and the author Stephen R. Donaldson. It is to the tune of the old Spiderman theme song and contains some spoilers relevant to the first 2 Chronicles of Thomas Covenant.
Covenant, Covenant
Got the new Thomas Covenant.
Donaldson, brilliant guide
His books may lead you to suicide.
Oh yes, I got the Covenant.
Stalwart Giants, they're all dead.
They took an Illearth Stone to the Head.
Lords all gone, Bloodguard too
Can't count all the people that Lord Foul slew.
Oh yes, I got the Covenant.
He will pierce your soul with his prose like darkest night
You'll succumb to Despair so why put up a fight?
Covenant, Covenant
Final chapter of Covenant.
Make you cry, make you wail
Have no doubt that good will fail.
Oh yes, here comes new Covenant.
