"The Ship of Ishtar" is a universally hailed as a classic of the
fantasy novel genre. Merritt's writings were heavily influenced by
H. Rider Haggard and Gertrude Barrows Bennett (writing as Francis
Stevens), with Merritt having "emulated Bennett's earlier style and
themes." What sets Merritt apart from the typical pulp author,
however, is his lush, florid prose style and his exhaustive, at
times exhausting, penchant for adjective-laden detail.
