Morgan Williams's Reviews > Gods, Men and Ghosts: The Best Supernatural Fiction of Lord Dunsany

Anyone who is a fan of modern fantasy, or even of not-so-modern fantasy, would do well to look into reading some of Lord Dunsany's work. I have seen him compared to Terry Pratchett, and while he doesn't go in for quite the same sort of obvious humor that Pratchett does, I think it's a fair comparison. I am reminded, too, of some of Fritz Leiber's work, particularly with stories like "The Sword of Welleran", or "Chu-bu and Sheemish". Read it.
