The Worm Ouroboros is a heroic high fantasy novel by Eric Rucker
Eddison, first published in 1922. The book describes the protracted
war between the domineering King Gorice of Witchland and the Lords
of Demonland in an imaginary world that appears mainly medieval and
partly reminiscent of Norse sagas. This is the book that shaped the
landscape of contemporary science fiction. J. R. R. Tolkien
acclaimed its author as ""the greatest and most convincing writer
of 'invented worlds' that I have read."" Written in the best
traditions of Homeric epics, Norse sagas, and Arthurian myths, it
recounts compelling tales of warriors and witches. The Worm
Ourorobos is second only to the Lord of the Rings in the pantheon
of 20th century English fantasy. You have never read anything like
