Brak the Barbarian (1968) - Brak, the yellow-haired warrior, pushes his way South on a journey through strange kingdoms threatened by dark perils and foul sorcery. His goal was golden Khurdisan, the city of his dreams. Among the evils that block his path: the loathsome Septegundus, whose writhing skin displays the souls he holds in perpetual torment; the Darter gang, street urchins who fire paralyzing silver sparks from their fingertips; beautiful Ariane, the wicked and lustful daughter of darkness; and the dreaded Lord of Evil himself, Yob-Haggoth. This is either an episodic novel or a collection of related novelets: 2 of which had appeared in Fantastic March & April 1965 (with different titles.) Contents: |
