Book description

Here are tales of steel-sinewed heroes --- brawny adventurers ready to storm the gates of Hell with mighty long swords in hand and the grim smile of the fighting-man on their lips. And here are legions of wizards, warlocks, ghouls, demons --- and worse--- casting dire enchantments and summoning all the powers of darkness to their aid.
