The Hand of Zei


The Hand of Zei (Krishna, book 2) by L Sprague de Camp

Like The Queen Of Zamba , just way too dated. The theories, the speculation, the plot, the characters, the humor I will not continue with the Krishna series. I might give L. Sprague de Camp another chance, but not anytime soon. Edgar Rice Burroughs was a favourite fantasy writer in my youth.

Besides all that swashbuckling adventuring and exotic worldscaping, I loved the lightness of his story telling, the humour. Not too many could out-do Burroughs, but L. Sprague de Camp accomplished that deed. Set on the medieval-level planet Krishna, the Zei stories remain a long-time fave.

In addition, this Ace Double edition had wonderful cover art by Emsh. And in this Sea is found the Sunqar, home of legend and Mystery. He was a writer, not a hero.

I read the Owlswick Press George Scithers edition that's been kicking around the house since we bought it at a librar Not the best LSdC book I've read, but still entertaining, and I've been a sucker for planetary adventure since high school when I read ERB's Mars books.

I read the Owlswick Press George Scithers edition that's been kicking around the house since we bought it at a library sale years ago; the Edd Cartier pencil illos are very fine, and Freas' colorized Cartier for the cover works well.
