Appendix Z - Keith
Taylor
A
combination of Historical, Sword and Sorcery, his Bard series (5 books) is an
enjoyable take on the bard of history and the bard of more popular fancy. I
don't know if he is a gamer, but the series is wonderful inspiration for
gamers. I can recommend the first three books in the series. I stopped reading
somewhere shortly after starting book 4 (and can't remember why) and only
recently picked up book 5.
He
has a long list of short stories but the work is a bit too recent for me (I've
never read any of the newer Weird Tales magazines or caught the work he did in
the 70's).
