Gilgamesh the King
Robert Silverberg
William Morrow & Co
_Gilgamesh the King_ is Robert Silverberg at his brilliant best. Using as his armature the life of Gilgamesh, the Sumerian god-king who actually lived some 5000 years ago, Silverberg has wrought an epic tale destined to become a contemporary classic. This story is myth and magic; it is the story of fame, nobility, and mortality. It is sorcery, mysticism and adventure.
