Description:
London: Jonathan Cape, [1930]. First edition in English. A fine copy in a nearly fine dust jacket with a little spotting to the upper left front panel and a little age darkening to the spine. (23959). Octavo, pp. [1-8] 9-114 [115] [116: blank] original blue-gray speckled boards, spine stamped in gold, rear cover stamped in blind with the publisher's colophon. "The vigor and inventiveness of the pulp stories found few echoes in the werewolf novels of the 1930s, most of which were routine potboilers revolving around stock situations. One of the few to rise above the general mediocrity was THE WOLF'S BRIDE (1930) by the Finnish author Madame Aino Kallas. Imitating the style and legends of the old Norse chronicles, it tells of the tragic events that occur after Pridiik the hunter takes the lovely Aolo for his bride." - Frost, The Essential Guide to Werewolf Literature, pp. 144-45. A high point of early werewolf fiction unaccountably dropped from the 1978 Bleiler Checklist. Bleiler, The Guide to…

"Borrowing a little from Tolkien and a touch from BRAVE NEW WORLD, this fantasy of America's distant future is equally interesting and exciting" - Bookviews. "Combining the intriguing plot with an army of fascinating characters, strange weapons and well-paced action, the authors have created a first-rate fantasy." - Publishers Weekly. "As an SF writer, Godwin remains best known for the first two volumes of the Masters of Solitude sequence, both with Marvin Kaye: THE MASTERS OF SOLITUDE (1978) and WINTERMIND (1982); a projected third volume did not appear.
