Fantasmagical voyages into alien landscapes!

Incredible worlds, impossibly beautiful cities, and still more fantastic creatures-
Forays into the unnameable beyond the tomb-
Macabre and ghoulish tales of weird-heroic fantasy and sheer terror-
Clark Ashton Smith

None strikes the note of cosmic horror as well as Clark Ashton Smith. In sheer daemonic strangeness and fertility of conception, Smith is perhaps unexcelled by any other writer. - H.P. Lovecraft

Take one step across the threshold of his stories and you plunge into colour, sound, taste and texture; into language. - Ray Bradbury

a monstrously vivid imagination, a keenly ironic sense of humour, and an uninhibited bent for the macabre...a giant in the weird-heroic field. - L. Sprague de Camp
