I just finished a four-month binge-read of the first two Thomas Covenant trilogies, and now that I've finished all six books, I'm left with the feeling that one of the rivers is flowing in the wrong direction.



There is a river that (logically) flows from Revelstone (Glimmermere, Furl Falls) through the Wightwarrens of Mount Thunder and ultimately (via Landsdrop) becomes the Defiles Course through the Sarangrave Swamp to empty into the ocean south of Coercri (The Greaves). In two of the books (the first book of both the first and second series?), Covenant travels upstream to reach Revelstone.



Is this explained somewhere, or did I get the rivers mixed up? It seems that all west/east rivers would need to lead over Landsdrop and empty out into the ocean.
