Özet
Neil Gaiman Presents: the first book in Fritz Leiber's classic sword-and-sorcery series, which includes the Hugo and Nebula Award-winning novella, Ill Met in Lankhmar.

In the ancient city of Lankhmar, two men forge a friendship in battle. The red-haired barbarian Fafhrd left the snowy reaches of Nehwon looking for a new life, while the Gray Mouser, apprentice magician, fled after finding his master dead. These bawdy brothers-in-arms cement a friendship that leads them through the wilds of Nehwon, facing thieves, wizards, princesses, and the depths of their desires and fears.

The late Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser launched the sword-and-sorcery genre, and were the inspiration for the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons.

BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction by Neil Gaiman.

Eleştirmen yorumları

"It's, like all of Fritz Leiber's fiction, delightful and, like all of the Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser stories, a wonderful place to go." (Neil Gaiman)
"Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser are virtually a genre unto themselves. Urbane, idiosyncratic, comic, erotic and human, spiked with believable action and the eerie creations of a master fantasist!" (William Gibson)

Some good scenes but the story lacked a lot of depth. The characters may develop in sequels?

Had it’s moments

Great characters, inventive plots, unforgettable villains, old realms, merciless gods, beautiful women... what can we ask more to a fantasy novel?

Maybe good style and quick pace? Fritz Leiber has all of these and more. Sadly we cannot say the same of most of his followers.

The adventures are narrated in an Howardian style, maybe with a better language, but the protagonist are more cunning and cynical.

Nothing beats great old fantasy!

Enjoyed it, well read, though definitely of its era. Some of the ideas in it were excellent and it's nice to see one of the bases of the genre.. The language at times is a little difficult to follow however, but over all I'd recommend it.

Of its age, but good.

you'll never know how many of your favourite fantasy novels owe homage to this timeless classic until you read it, but I'll bet there are dozens. it's a stark reminder of how stale the genre has become that in its infancy, an author can produce characterises and plot that feel like they were created yesterday.

true classic!

I mean, they're odd stories - wonderfully so, beautifully told. Playful, naughty and did I mention odd?

Wish I'd read these earlier
