This early volume of Clark Ashton Smith's poetry was published when he was a mere lad of nineteen. At that point, he achieved international acclaim, and an American critic dubbed him the "Keats of the Pacific." He moved for a short time in the same circles as Ambrose Bierce and Jack London. In any case, these poems are a sign of the talent to come. This Large Print Edition is presented in easy-to-read 16 point type.

Gerard was on his way to meet the beautiful Fluerette when he wandered into Averoigne's forest… a place of mystery and danger… (note: single title, non-omnibus edition)

The spaceship is called the Star Treader, which has a crew of fourteen. The crew has a five-year galaxy-policing mission, which is completed with many challenges along the way but costs some lives. They hail from five different planets and take their religious faith seriously as they call on God to help them deal with impossible difficulties such as space pirates, intelligent nuclear spiders, AI viruses, fighting transdimensional beings, and rescuing energy beings who are friends. They run into political shenanigans that almost cost them their lives. They find friends in unexpected places. Overall, the combination of adventure, faith, and camaraderie presented in the exploits of Captain Christopher Comet and the Intergalactic Patrol is an exciting glimpse into the world of the future.
