Why You've Never Heard of Clark Ashton Smith

Описание: Hello Youtube!

Today I want to let you know why you’ve never heard of one of the most influential and best fantasy writers of all time! It’s because, unlike J.R.R. Tolkien, Robert E. Howard or Michael Moorcock, he was published wrong. And that’s why!

I take a look at who he is, what he wrote, and how influential he was. Want to check out my review of his short story, The Seven Geases? Great! It’s here:    • Clark Ashton Smith's The Seven Geases  

Want to pick up some Clark Ashton Smith stuff so you can get caught up? Of course you do! You always struck me as someone of taste.


Here’s the Penguin Classic of his work, which is fine as a beginning point, although it’s missing a lot of stuff. https://www.amazon.com/Eidolon-Other-...


If you are looking for a full collection of his fantasy stuff, rather than a world by world one, then this is not a bad place to start - https://www.amazon.com/Story-Collecte...

Good luck in your quest for the Smith!
