Publisher Description
The continuing adventures of Tarra Khash, Hrossak, in the Primal Land at the dawn of time.
Long before Atlantis and Mu, in olden Theem'hdra the Primal Continent, there existed a world of swords and sorcery, of magic and mayhem, and of wizards, demons, and alien gods from far, dark stars. One of the principal players in this land of myth and legend was Tarra Khash, Hrossak, an inveterate wanderer and adventurer.
Join Tarra now in the ultimate challenge, the ultimate quest: to save a world from the menace of pit-spawned demons, called up from hell by Sorcery in Shad!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Tarra Khash, Lumley's barbarian hero, meets and defeats no end of wizards, good and evil, discovering the hard way that some villains aren't so bad after all, in the mellow third and final collection of primal land adventures (after The House of Cthulhu and Tarra Khash: Hrossak!). In a typical sequence, the vampire bite of Orbiquita, an ugly, leathery and long-lived lamia, has dire consequences; Tarra loses interest in women just as Orbiquita's passion for him is further inflamed. For Tarra's sake, Orbiquita surrenders her near-immortality as a lamia to become a beautiful if short-lived woman. While Lumley takes too long to wind up the action, he closes with an appropriately happy climax.
