The Wizard of Zao

Taking place on a planet revolving around the star Kylix in the Constellation of the Unicorn, it is Lin Carter at his most imaginative. For the story of the wandering green wizard, the most powerful wonder-worker of that amazing sphere, of his newly purchased slave girl who knew nothing of civilized ways, and of the mythical beasts and curious humans they encountered is a constant source of delight. For the wizard did have a purpose to his travels--and thereby hangs a tale!
