Trees of Illiun
Considered on of the classic works of fiction, this book was written by ‘Ecnav’, a pen name used by someone who was never further identified.
It tells the story of a young protagonist, Brook, who travels the world and helps out people they meet by using brains not brawn. The countries Brook visits are all thinly veiled allegories for real countries in the world with their stereotypes played with but at the same time shown in a positive light.
