"Black God's Kiss"
The debut of Jirel of Joiry, one of the classic heroes of sword and sorcery and fantasy's first true strong female protagonist. As cunning as she is fierce, Jirel descends into a nightmarish land beneath her castle to find the instruments of her revenge...
"The Bright Illusion"
One man's journey to a mind-bending, terrifying planet of blinding colors and impossible angles, filled with unutterable horrors and strange temptations...
