Black God's Kiss by C.L. Moore

5.0

---

I’ve only recently delved into 1920-40s speculative/horror/fantasy fiction and I’m literally obsessed. The imaginations of these early writers with their seminal pieces is so overlooked. Robert E. Howard has been a great read but C.L. Moore has easily outstripped his writing in my opinion. Women write women much better than men, obviously, so Jirel was a brilliant character and I felt much more connected to the story than I did with Bran Mak Morn.
