by Henry Kuttner, with an introduction by Piers Anthony
Hailed as a “neglected master” by Ray Bradbury and “the best fantasy ever” by Marion Zimmer Bradley, Henry Kuttner has been an inspiration to science fiction and fantasy authors for generations. In The Dark World, Kuttner brings us his most enchanting adventure yet, the story of a World War II airman thrust into a weird and ominous realm of mutants and magic.
Edward Bond is not alone in his mind. Haunted by strange events during the war, he returns home to discover he now shares his body with his identical twin from an alternate dimension, the evil wizard Ganelon. Sucked through a portal to the Dark World, Bond finds himself trapped between two warring factions. On one side is the Coven: a werewolf, an immortal, and a beautiful witch eager to acknowledge Ganelon as their sinister ruler. On the other is the white sorceress Freydis and her band of forest rebels that want nothing more than to see the warlock’s head on a spike. Will Edward/Ganelon join with the rebels to release the oppressed world from the grip of a tyrannical, sacrifice-hungry god—or embrace the Coven to become the world’s greatest villain?
An undisputed fantasy classic from the author of Elak of Atlantis, Henry Kuttner's The Dark World once more takes its place in the Sword and Sorcery pantheon! |
