'The People of the Pit and Other Stories' is a collection of
Abraham Merritt's short stories, and contains seven stories and two
"fragments". These short stories span the entire career of the man
who has been called America's foremost adventure fantasist of the
1920s and '30s. Several of the tales boast the lush purple prose of
Merritt's early period (as seen especially in his first two novels,
"The Moon Pool" and "The Metal Monster"), but all seven are finely
written little gems. They run the gamut from full-blown fantasy to
lost-world adventure to outright science fiction, and abundantly
demonstrate that Merritt was a master of the concise short form, as
well as the full-length novel.
