Sobre este artículo
New York: Gnome Press, Inc., Publishers, [1953]. First edition. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket with a touch of rubbing to spine ends and corner tips and two light blue horizontal lines on the verso of the jacket (offset from a previous jacket protector) with slight bleed through to rear panel. (16708). Octavo, boards. Collects three Jirel of Joiry and four Northwest Smith stories. Jirel of Joiry introduces a female lead character into the Sword and Sorcery sub-genre. The Northwest Smith are science fiction stories set in the future, Smith is a space pilot and a oft time smuggler. All the stories here were first published in Weird Tales magazine. Concerning the Jirel stories, Schlobin in The Literature of Fantasy (p. 179) writes "Jirel's admirable courage in the face of horror and helplessness make her an exciting and dynamic figure, and Moore's descriptions, settings and dark devices are striking and original." Bleiler, The Guide to Supernatural Fiction 1191. Schlobin, The Literature of Fantasy 794.
