Imaro was, his name—Imaro of the Ilyassai, Imaro the outcast, Imaro the legendary hero of the jungle continent. This is the epic, action-packed, novel of how Imaro achieved manhood, won his rights among the people, and began his long march against the fantastic and unearthly terrors of that alternate-Africa known as Nyumbani.Imaro's saga will be compared with that of Conan and other heroes of history and legend and will rise above them for authenticity, for vivid conception, and for gripping reading.Although this is the first book entirely about Imaro, episodes from his adventures have already won places in best-of-the-year collections and highly praised anthologies, and have won for Charles R. Saunders the 1980 Small Press Award for Best Writer of Fantasy.
