Description: The King of Elfland's Daughter by Lord Dunsany Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description "A fantasy novel in a class with the Tolkien books."--L. Sprague de Camp "It could be the very best fairy story ever written."--Gahan Wilson "No amount of mere description can convey more than a fraction of Lord Dunsanys pervasive charm."--H. P. Lovecraft One of the most influential and acclaimed works in all of fantasy literature, this captivating tale is the forerunner of modern sword and sorcery novels. It tells of a young lords quest through a supernatural world in search of a fairy princess bride, recounting the lovers romance, separation, and reunion. Rich in metaphor, vivid in imagery, the lyrical storytelling evokes a sense of innocent wonder. Its fans range from W. B. Yeats, who wrote that Dunsany "had transfigured with beauty the common sights of the world," to Arthur C. Clarke, who felt that the novel helped elevate the author to "one of the greatest writers of this century." Author Biography World traveler, soldier, big-game hunter, and chess champion, Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett (1878-1957) was the 18th Baron Dunsany and scion of a family whose lineage predates the Norman Conquest. His obsession with the supernatural and the fantastic fueled his prolific writings, which include eight novels, twice as many short story collections, and over 40 plays. J. R. R. Tolkein, H. P. Lovecraft, and Neil Gaiman are but a few of the fantasy writers inspired by Dunsanys fiction.
