THE GODDESS AWAKES
By
Clifford Ball
A
striking weird story about two wandering soldiers of fortune, a
sinister, evil stone idol in the form of a black panther, and a race of
women warriors.
|
The
Goddess Awakes by Clifford Ball is the second and final story Ball
wrote about his sword-wielding hero Rald of Forthe. Now
accompanied by his comrade-in-arms, Thwaine, the two find themselves
captives in a strange land ruled by the servants of a voracious goddess
that feasts upon the flesh of men. The Goddess Awakes is a
memorable sword-and-sorcery thriller from the Golden Age of Pulp
Fiction!
This
edition also features new, exclusive literary commentary and analysis,
historical perspectives, and a biographical outline of author Clifford
Ball; plus the cover features a reproduction of the original 1938 Virgil Finlay illustration that
accompanied the tale's first printing, making this the most complete and
authoritative publication of The Goddess Awakes ever produced.
