- Synopsis
- A trader of tales comes to unvanquished Zanadon in hopes of witnessing the coming of a god to turn back the Vorkan horde sweeping the country. Heroes, gods, maidens in distress...it's all here! From book jacket: "It is your turn now, Thorian," I said, as we crouched hiding in the dark. "What is your tale?" There was a pause, then a sigh which seemed to last for several minutes--the product of an unusual lung capacity. "Alas, Omar! It is nothing. The tale of Thorian will compare with yours as the mud of the paddy field below the glory of the lotus. Not only has my brief existence been totally bereft of incident, but I lack your felicity of phrase and facility of pharynx: You come from far and exotic lands, overflowing with wonders. You have viewed deeds of heroes and the wrath of gods. Beside your peacock splendor, I am the maggot in the filth of the chicken run." "That is indeed an inspiring opening!" I declared, much impressed. "Pray proceed."
