About this listen

Published in chronological order, with extensive story and bibliographic notes, this series not only provides access to stories that have been out of print for years, but gives them a historical and social context. Series editors Scott Conners and Ronald S. Hilger excavated the still-existing manuscripts, letters and various published versions of the stories, creating a definitive "preferred text" for Smith's entire body of work. This first volume of the series, brings together 25 of his fantasy stories, written between 1925 and 1930, including such classics as "The Abominations of Yondo," "The Monster of the Prophecy," "The Last Incantation" and the title story.

Pretty good

I'm a big Clark Ashton Smith fan, and this book is full of excellent performances from everybody involved with the exception of some of the accents. I rated the story a 3 because I don't really see these as what somebody would normally think of when it comes to his work. Not as much weird, macabre, fantasy, or dying earth style themes that practically drip off of some of his other work. There's enough quality in the writing that it's still worth listening to, and they're some excellent stories peppered in there, but I wouldn't rate it higher than 3 stars for story in comparison to other collections of his work.
