Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

There was a name, but the name was a myth: Citadel. It was the secret name for the masters of space, the creatures who ruled without office, who served without reward...Lin Carter (1930-1988) was a prolific American author, editor, and critic known for his contributions to both fantasy and science fiction. He is best remembered for his role in reviving interest in classic fantasy through his editorship of the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series, which brought back the works of authors like Lord Dunsany and William Morris. As a writer, Carter penned a wide range of fantasy series, including The Thongor of Lemuria saga, inspired by Robert E. Howard's Conan, and The Callisto series, reminiscent of Edgar Rice Burroughs' planetary adventures. His passion for mythology, ancient civilizations, and classic sword-and-sorcery tales was evident throughout his work, making him a significant figure in the development of modern fantasy literature. Additionally, Carter co-founded the Swordsmen and Sorcerers' Guild of America (SAGA), helping to popularize the genre in the 20th century.
