Neil Gaiman Presents: the third book in Fritz Leiber's classic sword-and-sorcery series.

In Swords in the Mist, lean times in Lankhmar force brothers-in-arms Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser to part ways. Only after a joust of wits and swords do the friends join together again, stealing the ship the Black Treasurer and sailing round and through The Claws. Fighting sea kings, curses and seven-eyed wizards, the pair set out on their heroic wanderings through the wilds of Nehwon.

The late Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser launched the sword-and-sorcery genre, and were the inspiration for the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons.

Critic reviews

"An absolutely marvelous time." (Neil Gaiman)
"Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser are virtually a genre unto themselves. Urbane, idiosyncratic, comic, erotic and human, spiked with believable action and the eerie creations of a master fantasist!" (William Gibson)

Adept’s Gambit was a bit of a slog. Particularly the one character’s backstory. A slog within a slog.

Not my fav.

This is a a humorous action fantasy adventure. Easily one of the best pulp fantasy authors ever to man a typewriter.

Solid Fantasy Adventure

The storyline was okay but there are better ones in my opinion. The narrator's consistent use of different voices for different characters is appreciated but there were a few times when the voice used was somewhat distractingly monotone.

Not the best in the series

Another wonderful tale of Fafard and the Gray Mouser. Their adventures pull the reader in and holds them to the end.

We done!
