Time and the Gods by Lord Dunsany
"Time and the Gods" by Lord Dunsany is a collection of short stories published in 1906. The book presents tales linked by Dunsany's invented pantheon of deities dwelling in the mystical realm of Pegāna. This second work by the Irish fantasy writer explores cosmic themes through imaginative mythology, featuring gods, mortals, and their intertwined fates. The collection influenced major fantasy authors including Tolkien and Lovecraft, and was originally illustrated by Sidney Sime
with ten haunting black and white drawings that still reside at Dunsany Castle. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
