✦ Synopsis

This novel was a sequel to The Eyes of the Overworld written at a time before Vance resumed writing in the Dying Earth universe. When Vance returned to the milieu, his Cugel's Saga continued the events of The Eyes of the Overworld in a different direction, at which point A Quest for Simbilis became non-canonic, but is so highly original that it is no mere pastiche. Shea later applied his talents to Nifft the Lean, which won him the World Fantasy Award.

1975 British Fantasy Award - August Derleth Fantasy Award (Best Novel) nomination.
