Beskrivelse
The essential first volume of bestselling author Peter S. Beagle s (The Last Unicorn) short stories demonstrates why he is one of America s most influential fantasists. With his celebrated versatility, humor, and grace, Beagle is at home in a dazzling variety of subgenres. Evoking comparison to such iconic authors as Twain, Tolkien, Carroll, L Engle, and Vonnegut, this career retrospective celebrates Beagle s mastery of the short-story form.
For over forty years, Peter S. Beagle has been the gold standard of fantasy.
