Threshold is a fantasy novel written by Sara Douglass in 1997, and one of the prequels to The Darkglass Mountain Trilogy.The story concerns a glassworker slave named Tirzah, forced into slavery because of her father's debts. She's tasked with helping building the eponymous Threshold, a pyramid made partially with huge glass panels. She meets a Magus named Boaz, hiding behind a Magi exterior a little too well. The Magi base a religion and magic power around the One, the number of all creation. And Threshold is being built to allow them to tap into the power of Creation and become immortal.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Once Threshold is completed, though, it... Doesn't go quite as planned. | |

| Threshold / int_2fd7200b | comment |
Dead Guy Junior: Sort of. Boaz names his and Tirzah's daugher Ysgrave, which was Tirzah's name before she became a slave. Tirzah was also named after Boaz's mother. | |
