Sobre este artículo
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1976. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. First edition. About fine in price-clipped near fine dust jacket with a very short creased tear at top of the front panel. A scarce title, the author's fourth novel using his own name, inspired by the epic *Beowulf* but retold as a story of a Tenth-Century Arab diplomat who encounters fierce Norsemen, as well as the "eaters of the dead" of the title. Filmed in 1999 by John McTiernan as *The Thirteenth Warrior* with Antonio Banderas and Vladimir Kulich.
