Notes

reissue by warner books, inc. 75 rockfeller plaza, new york ny10019 a warner communications company, the (relatively) new owners of paperback library, inc.'s april 1968 first edition in the fairly loose "thongor" series of sub-burroughsian heroic fantasy adventures.
warner paperback library dropped the "paperback library" during the course of an oddly-convoluted absorption of cbs' popular library (and other publishers), the forced partial/semi-disgorgal of some into a theoretically-independantly run publisher, the sale of some to fawcett books. . .

given the opportunity to acquire uk (& roi) distribution for all their catalogue whoseand uk rights were clear, and which they'd been unable to sell to anyone else by the then m-d of hamlyn paperbacks - and be paid for 'em! - they not unnaturally jumped at the chance. covers have merkin & canadadian prices removed, uk price (u.k. 80p in this case) added on the back cover, alongside an "H" in silhouette, and the legend, "warner books are distributed in the united kingdom by hamlyn paperbacks" added at foot of title p.
160pp incl. 4pp titles, 1p map & 10pp appendices.

5th Feb 2016
 Rated 2/10
extremely sub-erburroughsian.

awful.

avoid at almost all costs, unless a fan of very poorly-written mighty-thewed barbarian heroes and mighty-thewed barbarian hero stories - or possibly a lin carter fan, if such a fantastic beast exists...
