SORCERY AGAINST CAESAR. A new affordable paperback/kindle omnibus collecting all the Simon of Gitta short stories. Richard L. Tierney is one of the best sword-&-sorcery writers of the '70s and '80s. Alongside David C. Smith, Charles Saunders and Brian Lumley, he helped keep the genre alive when it was on the wane in the mainstream market place.

Steve, great share. We've never done a Simon of Gritta group read... will have to poll for that especially since availability is easier now.

Absolutely! Tierney been out of the lime light too long. One of the genre's unsung heroes, in my opinion.
