About the Author:

SALES POINTS* New and definitive editions of the most influential of all modern fantasy series * 'Most fantasy writers today are continually being compared to J.R.R. Tolkien. This has no bearing on reality. Most of us, if asked, admit that Fritz Leiber is our spiritual father, and for the most part we're sweating to keep up, let alone overtake him' -- Raymond E. Feist * 'The publication of these volumes should do much to help remind readers of fantasy of their debt to a writer who is, in my opinion, still the greatest of us all' -- M
