The Mask of Circe

A psychiatrist travels to a world of magic and gods in this take on "Jason and the Argonauts" from the Hugo Award–nominated author of Earth's Last Citadel.

Jay Seward remembers a former life in a land of magic, gods, and goddesses—a time when he was Jason of Iolcus, sailing in the enchanted ship Argo to steal the Golden Fleece from the serpent-temples of Apollo. But one night the memories become startlingly real, as the Argo itself sails out of the spectral mists and a hauntingly beautiful voice calls: "Jason . . . come to me!"

And suddenly he's on the deck of the Argo, sailing into danger and magic . . .

"A fantasy in the grand tradition of Merritt and the other giants." —Arthur Leo Zagat, author of the Tomorrow series

Praise for Henry Kuttner

"One of the all-time major names in science fiction." —The New York Times

"A neglected master." —Ray Bradbury, author of Fahrenheit 451

"Kuttner is magic." —Joe R. Lansdale, author of The Thicket
