Jack of Swords — E.C. Tubb

ABOUT...DUMAREST AND HIS QUEST FOR LOST TERRA

"It has something like the fascination of the Howard sword-and-sorcery stories, though Dumarest is no dumb barbarian...Good adventure. The whole series has been fun to read:' --Lester Del Rey, Analog

"With strong deft strokes, Tubb limns in a portrait of a man who has been everywhere and seen everything and is fooled by nothing...Most of all he is a man who loves his home world without any delusions about what it is or isn't:" --Jackson (Tenn.) Sun
"A choice blend of suspense, mystery, and the finest kind of science fiction:" --Independent Review Service

JACK OF SWORDS is the latest of these memorable novels. Dumarest, coming closer to the trail of the mythical Earth , is forced to divert his attention to hunt 6r a nebulous ghost world. That planet was said to hold on its surface a castle of heart's desire--where every wish would be fulfilled, including, perhaps, the return to Earth itself!
