New York: Bantam Books, 1975. Mass Market Paperback. Fair. New York: Bantam Books, 1975. Fair. New York: Bantam Books, 1975. Fair. CHRISTOPHER PORTERFIELD: I was with you once when you were introduced to a rather precious easterner who said, when he learned where you were from, "But surely there's no such place as Nebraska." The stories you've told me about growing up in Nebraska tend to evoke broad elm-shaded streets, tall old white frame houses, firm kindly Leon Ames-type elders with big round watches in their vests, and smudge-faced innocently prankish kids. Is there such a place? *as there ever? DICK CAVETT: I do remember Nebraska in idyllic images. Playing guns with my friends, or kick-the-can, or ditch, watching airplanes drone overhead op. lazy Sunday afternoons, collecting June bugs in a jar on summer nights, playing statues, making mud slippers. Joan Darling, the actress, once said to me, "I hate you. You're the only person I ever met who had a happy childhood." I guess I did. I know there are people who can't dredge up a single pleasant memory of their childhood, and I can come up with a hundred from mine, some of them right off a calendar or out of Tom Sawyer: exploring an old cave outside of town, skinny-dipping in the Platte River, lying on the bank of a lake on a lazy summer day with my friend Hugh McKnight waiting for bullheads to bite ... I could go on and on. Some of the pranks were not so innocent, though.  <br/><br/> <br/><br/>, Bantam Books, 1975, New York, New York, U.S.A.: Tor Books, 1984. Paperback. Good. Through the centuries since the Great Death, Kazi the Undying has been a feared legend throughout the Middle East. Now he is emperor and conqueror, an emperor as mad as Caligula 2,800 years ago. In the dark forests of SWeden and Norway, where a new ice age is beginning, the neoviking tribes have their own legend­of an Yngling, a youth who once saved them from destruction and will come again in time of threat. But they do not understand where the real threat lies. "Now suppose there was a land where all men were thralls. No, less than ·thralls, be­cause thralls at least have some rights and protection in law. Suppose all men were slaves except for one master and -his soldiers. And suppose that master had the worst kind of madness, finding his greatest pleasure in the misery and degradation, the torture, of his slaves. An emperor who conquered only to enjoy the cries, the whimpers, the begging for mercy of those he ruled. A man who had I ived very long and has a great army." Raadgiver leaned toward Nils. "What would you do if you lived in a land like that?" "I have never thought of such a thing," Nils answered. "Where is that land?" "Right now it is far to the southeast," Raadgiver answered. "But someday, perhaps soon, it may include all of Europe, even Denmark. "And what we want you to do is kill that man." ISBN 0-812-53473-5 06-22-17, Tor Books, 1984<
