Poul Anderson released this the same year Tolkien published “Fellowship of the Ring.” LOTR is a better book, but Anderson writes a pretty good story with several women characters with names. It’s also pretty inventive, but just not amazingly good.

I love reading “pre-Tolkien fantasy” because it’s not just D&D.

Some pretty boring gaps in this one.

There’s a lot of blood shed in this tale. If you’re given a name, you’re gonna die.

That witch is a psycho. ;)

Fuck Valguard.
