Description: A Vintage from Atlantis by Clark Ashton Smith Back in print in new trade paperback editions, the third of five volumes collecting the complete stories of renowned "weird fiction" author Clark Ashton Smith."None strikes the note of cosmic horror as well as Clark Ashton Smith. In sheer daemonic strangeness and fertility of conception, Smith is perhaps unexcelled by any other writer." —H. P. LovecraftClark Ashton Smith, considered one of the greatest contributors to seminal pulp magazines such as Weird Tales, helped define and shape "weird fiction" in the early twentieth century, alongside contemporaries H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, drawing upon his background in poetry to convey an unparalleled richness of imagination and expression in his stories of the bizarre and fantastical.The Collected Fantasies series presents all of Smiths fiction chronologically. Authorized by the authors estate and endorsed by Arkham House, the stories in this series are accompanied by detailed background notes from editors Scott Connors and Ron Hilger, who in preparation for this collection meticulously compared original manuscripts, various typescripts, published editions, and Smiths own notes and letters. Their efforts have resulted in the most definitive and complete collection of the authors work to date.A Vintage from Atlantis is the third of five volumes collecting all of Clark Ashton Smiths tales of fantasy, horror, and science fiction. It includes all of his stories from "The Holiness of Azédarac" (1931) to "The God of the Asteroid" (1932), as well as an introduction by Michael Dirda.Skyhorse Publishing, under our Night Shade and Talos imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of titles for readers interested in science fiction (space opera, time travel, hard SF, alien invasion, near-future dystopia), fantasy (grimdark, sword and sorcery, contemporary urban fantasy, steampunk, alternative history), and horror (zombies, vampires, and the occult and supernatural), and much more.
