The Dark World

Henry Kuttner

Ace Books, NY. 1946. Paperback. In excellent condition. Minor wear to front and rear cover, yellowing to text.

From the publisher:

"World War II veteran Edward Bond's recuperation from a disastrous fighter plane crash takes a distinct turn for the weird when he encounters a giant wolf, a red witch, and the undeniable power of the need-fire, a portal to a world of magic and swordplay at once terribly new and hauntingly familiar. In the Dark World, Bond opposes the machinations of the dread lord Ganelon and his terrible retinue of werewolves, wizards, and witches, but all is not as it seems in this shadowy mirror of the real world, and Bond discovers that a part of him feels more at home here than he ever has on Earth."

Insane post-WW2 gone pulp fantasy fiction. Underrated stuff with a beautiful cover. Take a chance.
