Seekers of wisdom and beauty include lovely lost women, eccentric wizards and man-eating melancholy deodands. Twk-men ride dragonflies and trade information for salt. There are monsters and demons. Each being is morally ambiguous: the evil are charming, the good are dangerous.

Review of 'The Dying Earth' on 'Goodreads'

I read this one in part because it is mentioned as one of Gary Gygax's inspirational sources for Dungeons and Dragons, and a lot of D&D bloggers talk about it.
