UTISAK - Tipičan pulp-fiction u duhu Hauarda sa primesama Lavkrafta. Vidi se da je pisac imao uzore u obojici. Sadrži ukupno 6 priča, 4 o Elaku iz Atlantisa i 2 od princu Rejnoru, s tim što je Elak više "Konanovski" junak i same priče su za nijansu interesantine (plus ga prati večito pijan lopov Lycon).

This Kuttner fellow could really write. Going to dig into more of his and C.L. Moore's work soon!

An inferior Conan (a contemporary hero) or less satisfying Fafhrd & the Grey Mouser, the Elak stories were entertaining enough but not more than that. Two Prince Gaynor stories are included as well; they're like shadows of the Elak stories, and the collection would be stronger without them (but too short).
