SYNOPSIS: IT WAS A TIME OF HEROES. The world was young then and the human soul yearned for adventure. A man was measured by his strength and deeds--the greatest of heroes was he who was mightiest! In the days of the epic--of Odysseus, of Hercules, of Beowulf--gods walked among men and no man knew but that he would be marked for glory. Under the master touch of Poul Anderson and Leigh Brackett, heroes again journey--this time beyond the stars. The swordsmen and sorcerers of Fritz Leiber, John Jakes, and Lin Carter belong to the past of this planet yet they too share one thing in common with the star-trekkers--an undying love of adventure. Whether men of the future or men of the past, the home of these heroes is the present--in our world and in our time! - and - THE SWORD once symbolized strength and purity. Today, its tradition lives on, in the tales of Robert E. Howard, L. Sprague de Camp, and the writers included in this collection. Poul Anderson - Demon Journey - Man's fate and the beautiful Chryseis are at stake as Corun the Pirate battles the infamous Lords of the Demon Sea! Fritz Leiber - Bazaar of the Bizarre - The Gray Mouser and his faithful companion, Fajhrd, arise to defend the Kingdom of Lankhmar against the minions of hell! Lin Carter - Vault of Silence - The green plains of Sarkovy trembled as the Thungods descended. One man stood against the horde--Kellory, the warrior who wore no sword! John Jakes - Devils in the Walls - Brak the Barbarian returns to meet an ancient curse and raging greed--and deals with each in proper turn. Leigh Brackett - Citadel of Lost ships - The Terra-Venusian scheme called for genocide but Roy Campbell was one hero who'd never say die. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
