The curious quests of Brigadier Ffellowes

The remarkable Brigadier Ffellowes, whose exploits are legend, has returned, and along with him comes a sense of wonder that is increasingly difficult to find in contemporary fantasy. Ffellowes of course is the retired British general who is a link between our bustling twentieth century and a world that is full of the bizarre and the fantastic.

This second volume of Brigadier Ffellowes contains six episodes which are collected in book form for the first time. Here are tales of Arthurian legend ("Ghost of a Crown"), of strange creatures on opposite sides of the world ("And the Voice of the Turtle" . . . and "Thinking of the Unthinkable"), of Roman remains ("Commander in the Mist"), and a gem of a tale about old Ffellowes' dad ("A Father's Tale"). But perhaps the strangest of these yarns involves an Atlantean survival and the curiously associated fact that Ffellowes has taken a wife — and what a wife she is! ("The Brigadier in Check — and Mate").

This book is pure delight — a breath of fresh air — and it establishes Sterling E. Lanier firmly in the top echelon of fantasy writers.
