20th Century Fantasy Fiction

Alternate Histories, Sword and Sorcery, Epic Adventures in fantastical, faraway lands, are all here with many originating in the pages of pulp magazines Weird Tales, Unknown, and Fantastic Adventures during the 1930s.

The Savage Tales of Solomon Kane
With Conan the Cimmerian, Robert E. Howard created more than the greatest action hero of the twentieth century-he also launched a genre that came to be known as s word and sorcery. But Conan wasn't the first archetypal adventurer to spring from Howard's fertile imagination.

The Gormenghast Novels by Mervyn Peake
This is the first complete, single-volume paperback edition of the restored novels and includes twelve critical essays and an unfinished fourth novel.

"This extravagant epic about a labyrinthine castle populated with conniving Dickensian grotesques is the true fantasy classic of our time."
