The Harbinger Cycle

A Tetralogy in Four Parts by Tycho Brahe

 

Released along side the last three books of The Elemenstor Cycle (if you consider Book 10, Book 11 and Book 12 to be the last three, as most true fans do) these books explored the life of Harbinger Portent from birth to death. The tale spans the 13,907 years of the Harbinger's life.

 

It is suspected that the fifth book, if released would deal with Harbinger Portent's life after his ignoble death at the hands of Char Reyarteb, a time when he existed as a being known as the Ocumen.

 

The fandom's reaction to the series is evenly split into two camps - those who find the series a compelling and revealing read into the origins of the greatest Elemenstor of all time, and those who were dissapointed by the avante-garde experimental writing techniques and overall lack of action sequences. Many often reccomend readers "skip to the fourth book and leave it at that".
