The Mysteries of the Faceless King

Darrell Schweitzer s career stretches back to the early 1970s. He has written novels, most notably The Mask of the Sorcerer (1995), which was expanded from a World Fantasy Award finalist novella, but he has probably most distinguished himself for a steady stream of short fiction which caused anthologist Mike Ashley (in The Mammoth Book of Sorcerers Tales) to call him today s supreme stylist in the fantasy field. His work has appeared in a great variety of publications ranging from Amazing Stories and Rod Serling s The Twilight Zone magazine to Interzone and numerous PS Publishing anthologies. The present volume is the first major retrospective of his work.
