About this book

This collection gathers the short fiction of Clark Ashton Smith, one of the great American masters of fantasy and weird tales and a friend of H. P. Lovecraft. In these stories Smith carries the reader to invented worlds of extraordinary strangeness and beauty, among them the dying continent of Zothique under its red sun, the medieval French province of Averoigne haunted by sorcery, and the frozen land of Hyperborea. Written in a rich, jewelled prose all his own, the tales blend horror, dark humour, and a poet's love of the exotic, conjuring necromancers, doomed kings, and cosmic wonders. For lovers of fantasy and the macabre, they are a feast. This free PDF and EPUB presents the collected short fiction.
