THE THIEF OF FORTHE
By
Clifford Ball
CAUGHT IN A WEB OF TREACHERY!
A
swift-moving, romantic story of a famous thief who coveted a kingdom,
of an ancient key to the overthrowing of a dynasty, and the appalling
secret of an old magician whose sinister intrigues concealed a monstrous
scheme for revenge.
|
The Thief of Forthe
by Clifford Ball is an exciting tale from the golden age of
sword-and-sorcery adventure fiction, in which only the quick wits and
swift sword-arm of a wily rogue can prevail in an insidious game of
conspiracy and dark magic, with the fate of a kingdom as the
prize. The Thief of Forthe is an almost forgotten entry in a legendary tradition, told in a grand manner.
This
edition also features new, exclusive literary commentary and analysis,
historical perspectives, and a biographical outline of author Clifford
Ball; plus a stunning new interior illustration by Patanmar, as well as
reproductions of the two original 1937 Virgil Finlay illustrations that
accompanied the tale's first printing, making this the most complete and
authoritative publication of The Thief of Forthe ever produced.
