DRAY PRESCOT


For too long the iron legions of the evil empress of Hamal had devastated the neighboring lands and islands of Kregen.  Under the twin suns of Antares, that planet of marvels had been made a scene of carnage, rapine, and death.

Dray Prescot, Earthman transported to Kregen, had battled her all the way - and at long last found himself nearing the showdown of his long campaign for his new homeland.

Gathering about himself old allies and former enemies, Dray prepared to challenge the empress at the very doors of her capital city.  Until he discovered that she was about to spring her secret weapon - the super-science of the mad wizard of Loh.

"Reminiscent of John Norman's GOR." - Erbania

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
