Notes:

Lin Carter (June 9, 1930 - February 7, 1988) was born and raised in St Petersburg, Florida. He later returned there after serving in the US Army in the Korean Conflict where he received a Purple Heart. He moved to New York City and attended Columbia University in 1953 and 1954. He worked as a copywriter for law firms, ad agencies, and book publishers. In 1969 he became a full-time writer, editor and anthologist of fantasy & science fiction until his death in February 7, 1988.

Fantasy was Carter's great favorite genre and the most of his writings were about "Swords and Sorcery". He began writing stories while in high school with L Frank Baum, Edgar Rice Burroughs and J.R.R. Tolkien being his major influences.

Lin became an editor at Ballantine Books where he reprinted many of his earlier works. Dell and DAW also published a lot of Lin Carter's stories.

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.
