“This is a *fantastic* collection of short stories. As ever, Lumley’s melding of Lovecraftian horror, John Carter-esque pulp heroism, and all things weird, heroic, alluring, and forbidden makes for wonderfully entertaining stories. Absolutely a great collection.”
“Had high hopes for this one, but all it brought out in me was a strong desire to read Clark Ashton Smith. I know these stories are a nod to CAS (the book is even dedicated to Malygris, one of CAS’ necromancers) but they were so bland, predictable, and boring. Lumley is sorely lacking imagination in this one and his colorless writing made me sleepy. I guess compared to CAS’ poetic prose and flowery descriptions these stories seem like simple dollar store offerings.
The two stories that stood out for me were “The Wine of the Wizard” and “The Sorcerer’s Dream.” I’m gonna go read the Khash stories now, I’m hoping those will have a bit more classic S&S action (and they’re illustrated by Jim Pitts to boot!).”
