DESCRIPTION:

ENTER THE HAUNTED LAND OF AVEROIGNE

Collected into one volume are all of Clark Ashton Smith's short stories of Averoigne, the sinister, monster-haunted province of medieval France.  Werewolves and satyrs stalk the dark forests, witches and necromancers lurk in the swamps, and gargoyles and giants terrorize the cathedral city of VyÙnes in the heart of Averoigne.  Even the holy Abbey of PÈrigon is defiled by cursed statues and demons from the stars.  Come, explore the mysteries of Averoigne... if you dare.
