About this listen
In The Knight and Knave of Swords, Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser's journeys have taken them from one side of Nehwon to the other, facing life-risking peril at every turn. Now, in a set of stories that feature the adventurers on their own and together, they will face some of their most challenging obstacles. Against assassins, angry gods, and even Death himself, the duo must battle for their very lives.
The late Fritz Leiber's tales of Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser launched the sword-and-sorcery genre, and were the inspiration for the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons.
BONUS AUDIO: Includes an exclusive introduction by Neil Gaiman.

Critic reviews
"A fine, beautiful, and very, very fitting end to a remarkable series of stories." (Neil Gaiman)
"Glowing imagination melds with gorgeous language to make this one of Leiber's very best...which is a better best than this poor world usually has to offer." (Harlan Ellison)

I thought the writing and characters were great, the weave and themes of the stories excellent; nevertheless, this seemed to be a semblance of the old 'Swords', books. Or, perhaps, a semblance of a semblance.
lol, having got old and fusty myself, I feel like I'm just done an impression of Barry Norman reviewing Grease: 'well, it was basically a musical, it follows the plot of any 1950s high school story and they were passing off really old actors as teenagers. I really enjoyed it. So there.'
