The Appendix N Podcast - Episode 12 - Dwellers in the Mirage
A Viking and an American
Indian walk into the Alaskan wilderness. If that sounds like a joke, you
haven’t read Dwellers in the Mirage, the thrilling sci-fi adventure story by A.
Merrit. Listen to my guests and I talk about this story that features a Cthulhu-esque
deity, a Conan-esque warrior king, and half-naked warrior women in a hidden
mountain valley.

influences upon AD&D were probably de Camp & Pratt, R. E. Howard, Fritz
