Originally published in 1891, The Glittering Plain is considered one of the early works of modern fantasy literature and is notable for its influence on the genre. The story follows the adventures of Hallblithe of the Raven, who sets out on a quest to find his beloved, the Hostage of the Rose, after she is kidnapped by the Sea Eagles. His journey takes him to the mystical land of the Glittering Plain, where people can live forever without aging. The novel explores themes of love, heroism, and the pursuit of happiness, all wrapped in Morris's rich, medieval-style prose.
