Tarra Khash: Hrossak! Tales of the Primal Land, Volume 2
Brian Lumley
Tor, Apr 2006, $23.95
ISBN 0765310759
With the exciting first fantasy tale, readers will quickly understand why Brian Lumley is an award winning author whose fans are fanatical about his work. The six tales that make up this anthology all occur in the Primal Land and star fascinating barbarian Tarra Khash as he roams from one epic sword and sorcery adventure to another on the island continent of Theem’hdra. Each contribution is a strong entry that enables the reader to feel they accompany the antihero on his escapades as Tarra seeks fortune, and females with drink to fill in the in between time, but often faces evil sorcerers, nasty demanding gods, and murderous thieves who seem easier to confront in combat vs. some of the women he shares his bed with. Fantasy readers will enjoy this compilation that feels like a cross between Howard and Lovecraft and will want to journey with Tarra on his previous exploits in the Primal land (see THE HOUSE OF CTHULHU).
