Swords Against Tomorrow

IT WAS A TIME OF HEROESThe world was young then and the human soul yearned for adventure. A man was measured by his strength and deeds - the greatest of heroes was he who was the mightiest! In the days of the epic - of Odysseus, of Hercules, of Beowulf - gods walked aming men and no man knew but that he would be marked for glory.Under the master touch of POUL ANDERSON and LEIGH BRACKETT, heroes again journey - this time beyond the stars. The swordsmen and sorcerors of FRITZ LEIBER, JOHN JAKES, and LIN CARTER belong to the past of this planet yet they too share one thing in common with the star-trekkers - an undying love of adventure. Whether men of the future or men of the past, the home of these heroes is the present - in our world and in our time!Contents"Introduction" (Robert Hoskins)"Demon Journey" (Poul Anderson)"Bazaar of the Bizarre" (Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser) (Fritz Leiber)"Vault of Silence" (Kellory the Warlock) (Lin Carter)"Devils in the Walls" (Brak the Barbarian) (John Jakes)"Citadel of Lost Ships" (Leigh Brackett)
