Red World Of Polaris: The Adventures Of Captain Volmar

For a long time, Smith's The Red World of Polaris was assumed to be lost. It was the El Dorado of Smith fanatics, yet a copy turned up a few years ago – it was nothing short of a miracle.

Red World of Polaris has for many years been the holy grail for Clark Ashton Smith fans. A tale of Captain Volmar, it's been oft discussed but never seen, until now. Night Shade is proud to present Red World of Mars, a Clark Ashton Smith mini-collection of Smith's Captain Volmar stories, including the never before published novella, "Red World of Polaris".

Along with the title novella, it includes the other Volmar stories as well: 'Marooned in Andromeda', 'A Captivity in Serpens', 'The Ocean-World of Alioth'. Ronald Hilger contributes the introduction, 'The Magellan of Constellations: An Introduction' and Donald Sydney-Fryer the afterword, 'Captain Volmar and Crew: An Afterword'.
