DRAY PRESCOT


The windup of Prescot's stark adventures as a living chesspiece in the city of blood-games was to be as terrifying as the perils that had gone before.  Because now that transposed Earthman had to fight his way back to his embattled Vallian homeland across a sky fu!I of danger and a sea full of death.

And when he returned - if he could - he wouid find the combat joined, his son at doom's door, his troops up against superior odds - and a battle he must personally fight that would be two battles in two different places at the same time!

A VICTORY FOR KREGEN is a taut and gripping novel in the Burroughs and Howard tradition - one of the best in this much-praised saga of the colorful world of Kregen that circles Antares twin suns.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
