The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories (Unabridged‪)‬

The Sword of Welleran and Other Stories is the third book by Irish fantasy writer Lord Dunsany, who was a major influence on the work of J. R. R. Tolkien, H. P. Lovecraft, Ursula K. Le Guin, and others. The book is a series of short stories, some of them linked by Dunsany's invented pantheon of deities who dwell in Pegāna, which were the focus of his earlier collections The Gods of Pegāna and Time and the Gods. One of the stories, "The Fortress Unvanquishable, Save for Sacnoth", was afterward published by itself as a separate book.
