Lankhmar in Publication Order 7 Claws from the Night
Claws from the Night is Fritz Lieber's seventh published tale featuring Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser. It was published in 1951, in Suspense as Dark Vengeance. Today you can find it as the 8th chapter in the second volume of the collected editions, Swords Against Death.
Please note that we are still three short stories and a novella away from the origin stories that make up the current volume one of the collected adventures!
This is a great little story about a plague of thieving birds and a strange young woman who seems to have some kinship with them. It is only the second story to take place in the city of Lankhmar. I don't have a lot to say about it, except that it's full of atmosphere and has a nice, tight little plot.
