{"description": "While Lord of the Rings took the world by storm, Leiber\u2019s fantastic but thoroughly flawed anti-heroes, Fafhrd and Grey Mouser, adventured and stumbled deep within the caves of Inner Earth as well, albeit a different one. They wondered and wandered to the edges of the Outer Sea, across the Land of Nehwon and throughout every nook and cranny of gothic Lankhmar, Nehwon\u2019s grandest and most mystically corrupt city. Lankhmar, is Leiber\u2019s fully realized, vivid, incarnation of urban decay and civilization\u2019s corroding effect on the human psyche. Fafhrd and Mouse are not innocents; their world is no land of honor and righteousness. It is a world of human complexities and violent action, of discovery and mystery, of swords and sorcery.", "covers": [6637857, 12064958, 9952825, 8740673, 8741578, 11993632], "key": "/works/OL101929W", "authors": [{"author": {"key": "/authors/OL29390A"}, "type": {"key": "/type/author_role"}}, {"author": {"key": "/authors/OL53305A"}, "type": {"key": "/type/author_role"}}, {"author": {"key": "/authors/OL709314A"}, "type": {"key": "/type/author_role"}}], "title": "The knight and knave of swords", "subjects": ["Fantasy", "Fiction", "Fiction, fantasy, general", "American literature", "Comics & graphic novels, fantasy, general"], "type": {"key": "/type/work"}, "subject_people": ["Fafhrd (fictitious character)", "Grey mouser (fictitious character)"], "subject_places": ["Lankhmar (imaginary place)"], "latest_revision": 11, "revision": 11, "created": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2009-10-17T18:36:50.013545"}, "last_modified": {"type": "/type/datetime", "value": "2024-09-03T16:18:41.196684"}}
