Espadas contra la muerte

Resumen

Swords Against Death is a fantasy short story collection by Fritz Leiber featuring his sword and sorcery heroes Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser. It is chronologically the second volume in the complete seven volume edition of the collected stories devoted to the characters. It is an expansion of Leiber's earlier collection Two Sought Adventure, issued by Gnome Press in 1957. The earlier collection contained seven of the ten stories in Swords Against Death, plus an "Induction" omitted from the expanded edition, which was instead republished in its companion volume, Swords and Deviltry. Swords Against Death was first published in paperback in 1970 by Ace Books, which reprinted the title numerous times through August 1990; later paperback editions were issued by ibooks and Dark Horse. It has been published in the United Kingdom by New English Library, Mayflower Books and Grafton. The first hardcover edition was issued by Gregg Press in December 1977. The book has also been gathered together with others in the series into various omnibus editions; The Three of Swords, Ill Met in Lankhmar, The First Book of Lankhmar, and Lankhmar.
