Synopsis: "Jirel de Joiry is a proud warrior who is fearless. Neither the horrible black god nor the sorceress Jarisme. From the darkest countries to the corridors of the disturbing castle of Hellsgarde, Jirel fights for his freedom, even for his survival, but also to save Joiry from the most unlikely perils. And what could be more improbable than this strange encounter with Northwest Smith, the famous space adventurer from the future. With these six short stories featuring one of the first female fantasy characters, Catherine L. Moore has done a pioneering work. Six texts imbued with great sensitivity, to discover or rediscover." gallimard.fr Sept 13, 2022
