About this listen

 Neil Gaiman Presents: the sixth book in Fritz Leiber's classic sword-and-sorcery series.

In Swords and Ice Magic, Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser have traveled the width and breadth of the land of Nehwon in search of adventure and fortune. Now lost at sea, their ship drawn out on the Great Equatorial Current, their journey brings them to Rime Isle, a tragic island populated by vagabonds and wanderers. The island is also home to a race of gods, schemers, and manipulators that plague the humans for their amusement. Will Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser be able to escape the island, or be trapped forever as pawns of the gods?

The late Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser launched the sword-and-sorcery genre, and were the inspiration for the fantasy role-playing game, Dungeons and Dragons.

BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction by Neil Gaiman.

What the critics say

"Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser up against Death - you know who to put your money on. And it's not Death." (Neil Gaiman)
"Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser are virtually a genre unto themselves. Urbane, idiosyncratic, comic, erotic, and human, spiked with believable action and the eerie creations of a master fantasist!" (William Gibson)

The least enjoyable story thus far

Unlike the earlier stories in the series this one felt like fan fix written by a 14 year old. There were moments that it felt like the story was going to improve but sadly they weren’t sufficient to redeem the story. The performance was as good as ever.
