The Gods of Pegana by Lord Dunsany, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Lord Dunsany was an Irish dramatist and storyteller. His fantasy worlds combined imagination with ingenuity to create stories full of wonder. His more than 50 works were full of fairies and gods. His kingdoms could often be macabre. Mana-Yood-Sushai is a fictional deity in The Gods of Pegana, and also mentioned in a later work, Time and the Gods. In these books, he is the first god and creator of all the other gods. No one is to pray to him since if he awakens he will destroy the world and recreate new gods. The Gods of Pegana is a series of short stories linked together by the Gods who live in Pegana. Dunsany's work influenced J. R. R. Tolkien, H. P. Lovecraft, and Ursula LeGuin. | The Gods of Pegana by Lord Dunsany, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
