The Story of the Glittering Plain

''The Story of the Glittering Plain'' (full title: ''The Story of the Glittering Plain which has been also called the Land of Living Men or the Acre of the Undying'') is an 1891 fantasy novel by William Morris, perhaps the first modern fantasy writer to unite an imaginary world with the element of the supernatural, and thus the precursor of much of present-day fantasy literature.〔L. Sprague de Camp, ''Literary Swordsmen and Sorcerers: The Makers of Heroic Fantasy'', p 40 ISBN 0-87054-076-9〕 It is also important for its exploration of the socialist themes that interested Morris.
His earlier fantasies ''The House of the Wolfings'' and ''The Roots of the Mountains'' were to some degree historical novels. Like these ''The Story of the Glittering Plain'' is set in a world similar to the distant past of northern Europe. Morris would go on to develop the new genre established in this work in such later fantasies as ''Child Christopher and Goldilind the Fair'', ''The Wood Beyond the World'', ''The Well at the World's End'', and ''The Water of the Wondrous Isles''.〔L. Sprague de Camp, ''Literary Swordsmen and Sorcerers: The Makers of Heroic Fantasy'', p 42-5 ISBN 0-87054-076-9〕
==Plot introduction==

The book concerns the quest of Hallblithe of the House of the Raven to rescue his fiancée the Hostage, who has been kidnapped by pirates, which ultimately takes him to the utopian Land of the Glittering Plain, also known as the Acre of the Undying or the Land of the Living Men, whose inhabitants are supposedly immortal.
